I personally believe that it is not too late for some people in their 50s to start a business from scratch. Now the average life expectancy of people in China is 76 years old. Isn’t it possible to build a listed company in more than 20 years? To answer this fan’s question, what are some small-scale entrepreneurial projects that a 55-year-old can start from scratch? I recommend a few here for reference.

Pure takeaway snacks

For a 55-year-old, this is the simplest small entrepreneurial project. For example, if you open a pure takeout fried chicken restaurant, register and log into some takeout catering platforms, and do a little promotion, you can receive more than 100 orders in a day. The average order is 30 yuan, 3,000 yuan a day, and a 30% profit should be made. Moreover, the goods you get are all semi-finished products, and you can fry them one by one. All you need to do is rent a small-storey house. An investment of 20,000 to 30,000 yuan should be enough. In this way, you can earn three to five hundred yuan a day. When you are ready, you can open a second or third store. This will create a chain brand. This is the beginning of entrepreneurship.

Two Yuan Supermarket

This small business is also very suitable for a 55-year-old person to start from scratch. Liangyuan Supermarket mainly sells relatively cheap small commodities, with low-price brands, which not only helps manufacturers solve sales problems, but also allows consumers to buy affordable products. The amount of investment to open a two-yuan store is mainly determined based on the location of the store. Generally speaking, it only takes tens of thousands of yuan to officially open a store. If such a small shop makes its own routine, it can flourish everywhere. Therefore, this small business is also highly recommended.

Flower and Soil Shop

If a 55-year-old person has a rural background, this small business can be run. The so-called flower soil is actually very simple. For a rural person, he can produce flower soil suitable for different flowers and trees by stirring up some rotten branches and leaves in the countryside, and then adding some nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, etc. in proportion. Then give these flowers and soil a nice name, make a more beautiful packaging, and a flower soil shop can be opened. For a rural person, this is a business without capital, which is a safe and profitable business, but it can be turned into a brand. That is to achieve a career.

Setting up street stalls

To be honest, I am quite averse to setting up street stalls. But for a 55-year-old starting from scratch, it may be a more suitable small business because it is easy to start. First, choose a stall location. For example, if you set up a stall near a park where there are many elderly people and children, you can buy some reading glasses, singing machines, small toys and other goods, and pair them with pre-recorded product introduction recordings to promote the business. This way the business will be very good. It's easy and worry-free, but if you want to make a lot of money by setting up a stall, it's definitely not possible. It can only be a transitional means.

To sum up, I think the above small business projects are more suitable for a 55-year-old person to start from scratch. Firstly, the investment is not large and it is relatively safe. Secondly, it has great prospects if done well. Therefore, I recommend it here to everyone for reference only. That’s all for sharing and communicating with you today, thank you for reading.
