    @Admin @TasBurrfoot a @IslanderndCity going back to this thread. (Just sharing) Since i will be moving to Au soon. I would like to share the new business venture i have with my other OFW friends. We put up a factory, we concoct various cleaning materials such as (1. dishwashing liquid - lemon and calamansi scents 2. All purpose liquid soap ( for hands, clothes, cars etc..) 3. Cleaning solution - for toilets floor tiles etc.

    we are still new few months only. We are targeting hotel, resto, laundry shops, janitorial services, hospitals and households as market.

    I am thinking take this to Australia also if its easy to get the related licenses or maybe i will start with the cleaning agency and use our own cleaning materials, then eventually supply cleaning materials to other establishments.

    I am working in external audit, one of my client who become my friend na din, they moved to Melbourne na and willing din na mag open up ng branch if and when i can take the same business and product sa AU.

    AD: any one who has business in Philippine or know anyone with business in hotels, hospitals, resto and cleaning company we can send FREE samples of our products. Also we deliver within metro manila for FREE for those who wants to try our products.

    Anyone who has started a business here in Australia? I am in Victoria. Planning to have Pinoy Grocery pero sa bahay lang muna then delivery sana.. Many are putting up Pinoy groceries na pero wala pa masyado dito sa Waurn Ponds.
