But how to open a business in this area? You can independently open a store or cafe or purchase a franchise for healthy eating.
Advantages

Also, one of the disadvantages of such a bio-enterprise is the seasonality of products. This must be taken into account: in the fall, demand for natural products always rises, while in winter people prefer jam, honey and other preparations.
Also, a healthy food company will not enjoy such success in a small town than in a megalopolis. Because there the population is smaller, and more people prefer fast food. In a metropolis, such a business will be more popular.
