Dear Rashid you have a journalistic bent of mind. Very useful info for aspirants. Best wishes.
Msahallah, Its a very good effort, it is never this clear wherever you try to find out. Thanks again to both of you. Jazakallahu Khair
Waooo ... I am mexican I loved this kind of videos thanks a lot ,please make more interviews of how to start your own business as international student 🙏🙏🙏🙏🇲🇽❤️
WOW. Thank you. Great breakdown.
We did run coffee franchise similar to Tim Horton, in a very good demand area 2001. We did hit our sales 9 month then sales were declining due to marketing effort from franchisor, new store competitor catches us after few month Timmy’s open and we couldn’t keep up sales as rent and overhead were expensive. We weren’t aware nor franchisor informed us but collecting ads fees for nothing, so I faced regional manager regarding sales and store underperforming, he refuse to give exact incident but story about how they running perfectly, and left negatives gestures
One of our loyal customer informed us by saying , “you watch out” you ve competitor.
Franchisor did nothing we ended up closing store and loss capital, after few month later franchisor closed many store then new restaurant were open popeyes oh boy they hit the goldmine! $$$$ Timmy still there as area grown population and senior they could $$$$ profit its long term game sir and hard-work. No hand out, you need to earn it.
Thank you for sharing your journey!
and thank you for sharing your journey as well.
Waao, Rashid. I saw many videos but the way you asked questions and the details Tayyub bhai gave were amazing, very helpful. Very encouraging. Tons of thanks. Looking forward for the next episode.

i
Only video in yt that give a very useful information
mr rasool goes straight to the point wow
Excellent interview. Really hands on and useful for entrepreneur.
First of all, I really appreciate the time & effort that you and Mr Tayyib has given to bring us this kind of information that is so unique in itself. Thank you so much.
The info that was useful for me in this video is that our man here took LMIA's to import the cheap labour.. I Would like to know more about how to find such employers like our Man Mr Tayyib Rasool. Bcz, employers like him would be useful for people like me who admire and has the ability to be in Canada but do not possess the education that is required for proper PR application. Hoping to hear from you Rashid Sir.
Thank you so much for sharing genuine information regarding start up business. This keeps motivating me to start business.
This one is gem. Thanks for posting
Will wait for 2nd Episode for sure. Need to know about his Japanese food chain too
Very good. did master in Petroleum engineering and running excellent business. I am also Petroleum Engineer and also plan same!!!! Hope all the best...

Your video is very informative but my concern is can we start gas station business without alcohol selling?
Jazak Allah
Thank you. I think this is something that one can discuss with the Franchisor.
Excellent session this was.. keep coming up with more about businesses... Stay bless & Grow..
Someday I will buy some business in Canada inshallah..

Brilliant share . Thank you for asking relevant questions, specially if you can sit at home and still run a circle k - business and earn passively.
Could you please make an episode for folks interested in starting up a food truck business! Since it’s connected to F&B. Appreciate what you do for the larger community out there

Salam Eid Mubarak. Excellent informative video, thanks.
Can you help a man with no personal business experience but having little bit marketing and technical skill to buy a low budget business in Canada. Best wishes all the way!
Hi , I f I am not wrong 50 K security deposit is always your money that you can get back ? But he also said every year you pay them 50-60 K. So what is it ? I dont understand it ?
And you asked very good questions but he didnt clearly said what could be the net earning per month or year . Do you have an idea ?
Is this kind of business good for taking PR ?
Thx a lot
@@rashid_ali how can we learn for ex earnings for new brunswick province ? In my calculation if you have 2-3 workers and they work 24/7 at least you pay 250-300 $ a day for them which makes 8-9 K for a month and if you get like 5K as the owner at least you have to get in your pocket 15 K a month. so the shop s total total sales at least should be 150 K for a month which means 1.5-2 million a year but he said 1.5 million is not possible with only store sales ?? there should be something wrong with the figures because thats simple logic..
When will next part come about fast food restaurants ?
@@rashid_ali thanks sir👍
Can I invest in circle K as a foreigner?
I wish living in Saskatchewan
Hi I am 39 years old. Having 13 years of work experience. Last 6 years I am in a senior managerial position. My IELTS score is CLB 7. ECA is a masters equivalent. I want to migrate to Canada by buying a franchise. Could you pls guide me how to proceed?

@@rashid_ali thanks
Great interview but the title is misleading. It's about grocery store business but the interview is all about circle k and a bit of fast food. The grocery store business is not even touched during the interview. Actually, I was looking for a grocery store business.
