When business analysts look for new investment opportunities to generate profit and wealth, food-related businesses are the first to spring to mind, because of the extremely good results of companies operating in this field.
However, this can only be the one side of the coin. Despite the growing number of catering companies, restaurants, gourmet food suppliers and many more, which have produced a healthy profit to their owners and shareholders, and have provided steady employment to their staff, throughout the years there have been other enterprises that have gone bankrupt for various reasons.
This could make aspiring food business owners realize the potential risks of a road seemingly full of roses and think twice before entering the food industry.
Of course, when things turn bad, the actual business may not close down and what happens is a change of ownership, so operations are not ceased.
Even in this case, the company founders are those to lose a source of revenue and their investment. Therefore, although the food industry may grow in aggregate, potential risks of failure and early exit are always present on company level.
