I may have found an opportunitty to open a small produce/grocery stand and (2 pump) gas station. There are at least 2 local conveience stations presently unoccuppied.
I have no idea how to proceed or what to do. So I thought I would ask for some advice and/or input. How much captial would I need to be able to start? How do I arrange for gas and or grocery services/delivery, etc.?
What kind of certifications or permits would I need?

watch the gas part it is hard for some to make a profit on gas because of the credit card rates. I have heard of some offering .10 off to pay cash.
Good luck if you decide to do this, being in business is stressful but worth while

I understand. Our web business can be stressful enough. Plus I've watched and helped my dad in the family business over the years.
It may never develop, but I see an opportunitty, and once I get something on the brain I have to plan and figure and dream about it till I either see I can or cannot do it before it will leave me alone.

Hey, if Walmart is almost the only grocery option near you, this could help a lot of people out!
I will pray for God's will for you guys and that He will give you the resources and knowledge you need if this is what you should do...
