Store in a Box

Here's one option if you're an entrepreneur in Vietnam: first, you get this mini shipping container-looking thing and plop it down in the middle of the street. Second, you open for business!


I really like this concept. It's a cheap, modular store in a box, and safe, too -- the owners padlock them every night and put these sturdy iron bars across the doors. Products I've seen being sold out of a store in a box:

Clothes
All sorts of food (veggies, meat, eggs, etc.)
Live birds (canaries, parakeets)
Bike helmets
Haircuts
Noodles
Fans
And basically everything else you can think of.

These containers also seem easy to move -- you'd just need to hook it up to a truck w/ a trailer, and off you go.
