First, expect to work more hours than you could ever have imagined. Second, with no experience in the food industry ---- how do you expect to make this work?

Figures and a good name aren't all that is needed to make a food business work. It comes down to quality, do people want it, and flawless execution of the product each and every time.

Enjoyment of cooking and food is also a bit understated. You have to LOVE LOVE LOVE it.

Sorry to sound so negative, but experience in the food industry is such a huge step in the right direction ----- I'd get a job in the industry if I were you BEFORE you open yours and get a taste for what it is going to be like. Also, you should do that before investing a ton of money into something that you may not like.

The food industry is not like most other industries out there. Lots of work, time, energy, and tears.

On the other hand, if your plan is great, your funding is there, and you REALLY feel you are ready ---- dive in! THis industry is, in my opinion, the best way to connect with people!

Good luck!!
