Sorry friends I was away for an offsite location where Internet was not available to reply!
Regarding this “Chukki Business”, the guys are not allowing me to put their personal stuff here but I think it is very safe to ask for the “Chukki Stop” in Islamabad and then go and get the specific info.
My other friend started home deliveries in Islamabad, He was earning good money but years before shifted to Karachi and doing good over there, He, too, did not allow me to put his business things here!
For milk collection, my friend used to go to the Sawan Bridge on GT road Rawalpindi and get pure milk while standing there personally. He used to sell, when was operating in Islamabad, at 100 more (In F sectors, people were ready to pay even more) than the normal price. He used to give equally good money to the milk producers. For “Dalls & other supplies, He had elderly ladies to pick stones from the bulk amount and then put them in nice packets fully cleaned from stones. He used to deliver salts packets as well.
He used to visit “Gojranwala” to get exceptionally high quality Rice (Large in size and very very delicious). When He left for Karachi, His rice business was at top after milk and in “Daals” He was earning no money at all but just to grow his business, He was doing several things on no profit no loss basis.
I still remember, He used to get mango, sort out the best ones and then at 300% price, would pack them in a gift wrap and deliver to the homes. The ordering people did not even bother to come and see the gift packs as He was trustworthy. They would simply call him and give him delivery addresses.
He was one the few who could afford personal “Text Bleeps” in those times.
He left Islamabad just before F-11 Markaz stated and offered me to come in Pakistan and buy his Islamabad business but I was short of resources at that time. I do not know who is doing that business now in the Capital but He was repeatedly asked by his customers to provide them almost all the eatables on the door steps. He was 100% free from fraud practices. He left for personal reasons and He had to leave in that situation.
I remember once I wrote an AD for him and we gave to the newspaper man fro delivery:
“Best quality mangos available for home & gift delivery. Please bleep at xxxxxxx for your free sample”
The very same day we received 50 calls and then we delivered “sorted out Chausa” to VIP sectors homes, American Club and to Islamabad Hotel. My friend came out with a net profit of 10,000 US Dollars in that season.
The answer to the question whether I am involved in this business: I am planning to go into this as my nephew is leaving Saudia just to start similar business and I will go with him as we have done a lot of research in this regard.
I think and I am sure that now a day when people are selling dead donkeys and other dead animals, if one can provide good fresh Halal meat to the VIP eateries, there is an excellent opportunity for an honest person to make his nice, Halal and plenty of bread n butter.
I promise that I will share each and every thing regarding my own business, even with minor details, once we get going. AG replied on Thursday, August 18, 2011 03:13 AM

Dear Halal Business Jazak Allah Khair for your kind words and advices. During this time we need some innovative ideas to generate new businesses. Giving money to somebody to do generate money for us is a big mistake. Please advice : 1. How to check the purity of Milk? 2. How to transport the Milk without spoiling it, and in what packing? 3. Which medium is used for the advertisement of the products and how? Please advice so that we can proceed accordingly |
