Bro SingViet started a cafe in D7, HCM back in 2008/9, you can ask him for his opinion...if I am remember correctly, he used his wife name and no company registration...just pay take over fees for one existing cafe and pay rental deposits upon lease...
I was in Can Tho Ben Ninh Kieu last year...saw a new pub with good hardware and software...no client from 7 to 10pm...if my friends and I dun go there to drink beer...virtually they are no clients...the pub is in a good locaition opposite an electronic shop...
Note - the above is IMHO...not to upset anyone...pls skip if dun like to read...&& |
thanks for the tip. went around pubs and cafes. some small, some large ones. crowd is pretty sporadic. quite difficult to predict. Was just exploring.
