Business Ideas for Hong Kong Companies, Startups and Entrepreneurs
For entrepreneurs starting new business venture, below may be some possible and profitable business ideas in Hong Kong.
Sourcing Agent
You can always source and buy many cheap (or low price) products from Mainland China. This is an attraction to many foreign business people, as they can export and resell the same goods to their own countries.
However, foreign merchants usually face problems including language barrier and long distance of travel to reach the local factories in rural places in China. One effective solution is to find a product sourcing agency who has an office that is based in Hong Kong.
As a product sourcing agent (based in Hong Kong), you will be able to bridge the gap between foreign merchants and China factories.
Manufacturing
Merchants from all over the world do source many different products from Mainland China through Hong Kong. These products (or items) may include electronics, computers (laptops and tablets), mobile phones and accessories, toys, bags, clothes, and more.
With geographical advantage of being close to Mainland China, companies in HK may decide to set up factories in China, and start producing the popular and profitable products that foreign merchants want to buy.
Yoga Instructor or Trainer
If you are a very experienced sports instructor or yoga trainer, you can sell your workshops and courses online through your website.
For example, a yoga instructor can host workshops for both beginners and people are learning to become yoga trainers.
Unlike a fully-functional eCommerce website that sell all types of groceries and/or clothes to HK residents, the scale of the yoga course website required is much smaller and will be considerably easier to maintain.
