So if you really want to establish yourself out there, you can create your own food cart with your own products. If you have an old recipe from your grandmother about the best halo halo, tacos, Chinese dumplings, and any other food recipe, then create your own with your own twist. If your products are great, then you can even franchise this and be a franchiser for everyone who wants to venture into your food cart business.

Most households here in the Philippines don’t have personal computers in their homes, much more the Internet. So if you want to venture into the Internet cafĂ© business, it would be wise to find an Internet provider that would suit your needs for speed.
