If you’re a student or someone aiming to be a food vendor, you can start with toast bread. It is easy to make, and you can learn more about different recipes online.
Before you venture into the toast bread business, find people who don’t really have time to cook or are probably into fast foods—for a start. Then, you can extend your strategy to others.
Even though things are quite costly now, you can have all your ingredients in moderation and still taste nice. Find a very nice bakery bread that is delicious and would make your toast bread very appealing. I mean, yummy and easy to eat.
The important tool you need is a toasting machine. If you have one, it’s a plus, but if you don’t, it would cost you more money. Don’t worry; it’s fine. Make sure you start with the right people.
You can also introduce deliveries but you must start with a certain number; at least 5 pieces of toast bread should be the minimum for anyone who wants to order far away from your vicinity. You must be very calculative.
If you’re in a student environment, it shouldn’t be difficult for you to get customers. Sometimes, when students have early morning lectures, they either don’t cook because of time or they want something light. You can be there for them. Make your price affordable.
You can tell them how they can inform you beforehand or remind them of your toast bread business through your WhatsApp status or message. Make sure your toast bread is always spicy and tasty. As you improve your business, you can add drinks – something your customers would like. Depending on the environment, it could be Zobo, Kunu, or any other drink.
As I mentioned earlier, you need to attract people who are interested. A good slice of bread cannot cost more than N1,200, and with other ingredients, you cannot spend more than N5,000. Your recipe should be something that is familiar to everyone, not something your customers would end up purging.
