Starting a business

Businesses that are able to change and improve the day-to-day quality of lives of everyone. Businesses that are people-centric and leave a personal touch on their customers.
- What plans do you have in starting a business?
Personally, I have always tried to brainstorm business ideas related to my hobbies and interests. An area in which I feel is lacking in the fitness/gym industry would be the availability, affordability and accessibility of healthy and transparent food products/stores. In an ideal world, these products/stores would be located close to gyms and sports facilities such as stadiums so that everyone will be able to access them easily. Also, I understand that setting these products at a low price would be the main challenge faced, through the interactions and bouncing of ideas I have thus far with people of similar interests.
