Production and Sale of 3D Sweets

Surprisingly, a 3D printer can be used in the culinary business. Nowadays, it is a fashionable and profitable business trend.

With the help of a 3D printer, you can produce a variety of culinary masterpieces: sweets and cookies of unusual shapes, sugar figures, and confectionery decorations. You can also create intricate souvenirs, plastic figures, toys, and accessories. For now, the 3D printer is only capable of making objects of small size.

At first, you should buy equipment for $1,000-3,000. It will be enough for a small amount of production.

If you set your mind on a larger-scale production, you need to purchase a 3D printer for $15,000. Plus, add the price of special consumable materials which amounts to $5 per reel of thread weighing 1 kg.

Hotel for Plants

Houseplant lovers will not have to worry about where to leave their green friends while they are on vacation or business trip. The idea of plant care hotels is gaining popularity around the world. At the moment, such hotels can be found only in countries with a warm climate.

However, such type of startup may require more effort than it may seem at first glance. Some plants such as orchid, roses or azalea need special care, e.g. they grow only at a certain air humidity and temperature.

In addition, the profitability of such an enterprise depends on the skillfully made advertisement as such kind of business is more likely to develop in a big city rather than in a small one. So, if you have a flat of 1 sq. m which can accommodate about 40 small pots, you can earn about $350-400 per month.

Fast-Food Restaurants that Serve Healthy Food

Healthy food is getting more and more popular around the globe. Nevertheless, there are few places where you can order fast but healthy food.

Apparently, high-quality and fresh dishes are more expensive than hamburgers and fries, so this business can be successful only in a big city. For instance, in Iceland people are crazy about healthy ice-cream. This innovative startup was launched only 6 years ago in 2013.

Packaging Equipment Rental

This simple idea for business came to life in 2018 in the US where people move from place to place quite often. Before starting such business in Russia, it is necessary to take into account all the nuances of the packaging and transportation process.

So, everything you may need when moving is packing boxes, foam blocks, packaging film, and tape. This is not a large investment but such things are quickly disposable. Therefore, it is probably more profitable to give for rent the suitcases, travel bags, and backpacks.

Replacement of materials will be needed in the case when it is not possible to pick up the package from another city after its use.

However, if you are succeeding in this business, you can solve this problem by opening branches.

Tailoring and Sale of Color Changing Clothes

Clothes that can change their color under the influence of sunlight are the latest trend in the clothing manufacturing business. Additionally, you can transform ready-made things, create your own models, and purchase only consumables. When creating a product, you need to copy the print cut from the thermal transfer film to the clothes with the help of a special press.

For the success of this enterprise, it is necessary to establish sales channels and think about how to attract potential buyers to such a new product. Overall, the profitability of each unit of goods can be totaled to $8 from $5.

Edible Tableware

The idea of edible tableware is not the new one. However, such enterprises have succeeded only in the United States, Japan, and several European countries. This type of business does not require special skills and doesn't cost much. All you need is a typical kitchen no matter where – in supermarkets, cafes or restaurants.

Eco-friendly tableware is a godsend for those who do not like to clean up the mess after cooking or meals. For example, after a picnic, the tableware can be broken in small pieces and left as food for birds and animals. Unfortunately, in Russia, edible tableware may not become popular because of its fragility and higher cost.

Paper Sculptures Production

Wolfram Kampffmeyer, the entrepreneur from Germany, started his business with the production of paper layouts, but then the business took off and soon he opened his own firm.

As it turned out, the production of trendy interior decorations made from paper requires a minimum start-up capital and the price of such products starts from $50.

Admirers of handicraft from Russia should hurry up while this niche for business is still free.
