FURTHER REPLY TO RAJAT

Hello again Rajat

This first group of websites is the list which I gave to CHERYL in the “FOODSERVICE” thread. ALL of them can provide you with ORGANSATIONS which are connected to the CATERING INDUSTRY and will, therefore, be able to contact CHEFS for your restaurant idea.

REPLY TO RAJAT

Hello Rajat.

When you inform us that there are only four restaurants, what exactly do you mean by the word “restaurant”? The word “potato” is simple and straightforward, but the word “restaurant” must have a slightly different meaning in India. How big are these four restaurants that can cater for six lakhs of people?

To find chefs for the business, you might find it useful to read the reply which I gave in the “SELLING TO THE FOODSERVICE INDUSTRY” thread of the Forum. In that reply I gave a list of websites connected with the CATERING industry.

Best Wishes.

POTATO / POTATO - all the same - In India there is a different numeric system - but it means the same

Is that 6,00,000

600,000 ?
