Just thought I'd throw this up and see where it lands, I have a shop fitting firm in the North West and have long thought about opening a fish store. Waaayyy back at one point I dabbled with renting out fish tanks to restaurants, doctors surgeries waiting rooms etc.
Anyway I already have premises that I use for storage of materials which is wasted and being a shop fitter could convert the premises at a minimum expense. The location is good probably within 40 miles of another big store with parking and as I have been running my own business for the last 15 years the inland revenue and all things tax are not a stranger to me. Neither are fish I've kept and bred them for 25 years.
I know you need certificates to keep life stock and courses are available but not sure where I would start apart from that regarding suppliers and setting up stocking tanks.
Anybody any suggestions where to start? BTW the mid life crisis bit is because I'm 40 today and starting to wonder where my life's heading It is something I have though about for a long time though just need a kick in the right direction.
