Here's an idea for you, its a bit of a Franchise Biz without all the requirements and licensing.

A friend of mine that I went to High School with back in the USA started a Coca-Cola vending machine business. He started with one machine in an office building and paid a small rent to the office building owners. He stocked the machine with Coca-Cola products he bought from Costco Wholesale. He was fairly successful making profit of about $100 a week so he got financing to buy another one. He continued to increase one at a time for awhile. Last I spoke with him he owned something like 65 machines. He got a huge deal with the County School System and put the vending machines in a few of their high schools. He has 2 trucks and 2 guys that work for him full time with a small warehouse. The business is nearly hands off at this point with his trucks being sent out daily to refill the vending machines.

The business is solid and requires very little upfront costs.

Good luck on your venture!
