How to Start a Sandwich Delivery Service
Here is a great offline business idea for you to start from home. If you want to start an inexpensive business in food industry and earn up to $1000 every week, then start a sandwich delivery service in an industrial or office district of your city, which will bring you huge profits on account of the large crowd of people working there.
First, you must establish a working relationship with restaurants and caterers. They will benefit from the volume of business you give them and will let you buy their food at a discount, enabling you to make profit as well.
Buy a SUV, truck or a van fitted with coolers and drink cabinets, for delivering your sandwiches to larger firms. Get a vendor’s license through the city hall or county administration office.
Fix your sandwich rates based on the discounts offered by other sandwich delivery services in your area. Visit restaurants and caterers with your business ideas and discount rates and sign a written agreement with them after setting up a 20% off, as the wholesale price. Make an item wise price list for your caterers and restaurants and make copies.
Inform large corporations, companies and office complexes that are situated within 5 to 10 minutes from your home, of your sandwich delivery service and leave your flyers and business cards with them. Advertise in local newspapers, local business journals, phone directories and internet.
