BUSINESS IDEAS TO START YOUR NEW LIFE IN THE SUN

On the subject of what to do workwise when you relocate to Spain, I strongly suggest that you create your own business so you don't have to relay in finding a job in a very difficult market, mainly if you don't speak the local lingo.

If you are in any of the expats Facebook groups, you will see that every now and again there is always someone asking what is missing in your area. Apart from some funny suggestions (like a sex shop), there are some business ideas/niches on the market that would be actually achievable.


So If you are looking for a new business oportunity at the time than moving to Spain, here you have some ideas:

- A buy in bulk food shop "compra a granel". This is a very popular idea, as nowadays everybody is gaining conscience about out environment.



- It seems there is a large demand for healthy vegetarian, vegan and bio food/products, shops/restaurants/bars. Although we Spanish don't really believe in not eating meat (sorry!), there is more and more people wanting to at least have the option to eat out regularly without having to face us meateaters. And even Spaniards will go there, same as we go every now and then to all types of different restaurants. I really think this is a great option.


- Home delivery service similar to "deliveroo" but for local restaurants that might not be on the big apps like "just eat" etc. There are plenty of lovely tapas bars/restaurants that might prepare your preferred sandwich/tapa/racion but they don't deliver. If you offer to do that for the small places you might be able to make it a go.


- Online working: English online teaching for Chinesse children. Easy to do (albeit hard work), and you can even start while you are still in your country. Or Virtual Assistant, which is also a very popular option.


Even in a saturated market (such as estate agents or hospitality) every business will always depend on your personal mark and attitude, so you might flourish where others failed.

These are just some suggestions, but I am sure there are plenty more business opportunities waiting for you. Just take the plunge!
