Nak buka gerai nasi lemak pagi, modal berapa dan berbaloi ke?
Aku dan wife pandai masak, ramai puji nasi lemak kami. Terfikir nak buka gerai pagi depan pejabat/kilang. Modal berapa untuk start? Kena lesen apa? Berbaloi ke atau penat tak balik modal?

Doctor Wei Beginner First-hand experience MO in Klang Valley GH, I answer common health question but see real doctor for serious ya.
Aku buka gerai breakfast dah 2 tahun. Modal start realistik: gerai/khemah dan meja RM1,500-3,000, peralatan masak dan periuk besar RM1,000-2,000, bahan mentah awal RM500. Kalau nak sewa lot RM300-800 sebulan ikut lokasi. Lesen: kena daftar dengan Majlis/PBT setempat untuk lesen penjaja, dan pastikan ada sijil kursus pengendalian makanan dan suntikan Typhoid (wajib untuk pengendali makanan). Berbaloi ke? Boleh, tapi PENAT. Bangun 4 pagi, prep, jual sampai tengahari. Margin nasi lemak okay kalau volume tinggi. Kunci: lokasi (dekat pejabat/kilang macam kau cakap tu bagus), konsisten rasa, dan servis laju sebab orang pagi terburu. Start kecil dulu, test demand, jangan modal besar terus.

Kira cost per bungkus betul-betul: beras, santan, ikan bilis, sambal, telur, bungkusan. Baru tau margin sebenar. Ramai gerai untung nampak banyak tapi lupa kira masa dan modal sendiri. Mula part-time, kalau demand kuat baru full commit.

Wife aku jual kuih pagi, aku bantu. Yang orang tak sangka: bahagian penat bukan masak, tapi prep malam dan bangun awal setiap hari tanpa cuti. Kalau sakit, tutup, takde income. Consistency susah. Tapi kalau rasa memang sedap dan lokasi betul, boleh buat duit lumayan. Test dulu jual weekend.
