Hello again Fastlane Forum members,
As mentioned in my introductory thread, I work in the field of agriculture and have the pleasure of collaborating daily with numerous agricultural companies. During a recent meeting with one of my clients, an intriguing discussion arose regarding a specific need of theirs.
One of my clients informed me that their practice of using waste material from other crops (previously processed) had been discontinued due to the unavailability of their usual supplier. Furthermore, she mentioned that she could provide me with another 10 contacts interested in making purchases if I could solve this issue.
Reflecting on the principles learned from this community, I immediately understood that the best businesses arise to solve real problems or meet real needs. Therefore, I decided to delve deeper into the matter.
After contacting other clients of mine who produce the waste material in question, I made a surprising discovery: many of them burn this material because they have no disposal alternatives. One of them even expressed a desire to get rid of this nuisance by finding someone willing to collect the material from them.
This situation immediately inspired me, and now I am committed to exploring the possibilities of turning this disposal need into a beneficial entrepreneurial opportunity for all parties involved. At the moment, my priority is to move as quickly as possible to create the most acceptable version of the product for the first company I spoke with and evaluate its viability together. I already have contacts for those who have the machinery to process the waste product... I just need to figure out how to transport everything (probably with my parent's Kangoo, as my company car, the Clio, is not spacious enough, lol).
Subsequently, in the event of a positive outcome, I will need to inquire about the permits required to transport this type of material on a larger scale, but one step at a time...
If anyone with experiences in similar fields has ideas, suggestions, or opinions to share, they are more than welcome, and I will definitely take them into consideration.
Thank you in advance for your valuable time!!!
