The Retail Provider

Perhaps you are totally into creating your unique whoopie pies but you do not want to be burdened with a retail space to sell them from. You arrange with a retail shop in each of the surrounding five towns to provide them with fresh product daily. And you are selling direct to consumers for special events, weddings, anniversary parties, and other private functions.

This is a great scenario where you get to focus on the part you love—food production. In this case, you would need to find a location where production of the food is the focus of the space. It might mean a commercial kitchen is already set up, or that you need to be able to renovate an existing kitchen to make it a commercially licensed kitchen, or create one from scratch (see section on commercial kitchens earlier in this chapter). Unless you are buying the space—which can be a great way to build business assets—be sure to negotiate leasehold improvements (see “The Lease” on page 87 for more tips) to create the space you require to be successful (and to be able to pay the rent!).
