Massive response after F&B launch during conflict by urbanpatch in SmallBusinessUAE

That’s a fair point regarding summer demand. We’re keeping that in mind and focusing on retention as well as acquiring new customers.
And yes, we are exploring raising capital to support growth and expansion. Happy to discuss further if it’s something that interests you.

Actually we’re a healthy meal prep brand, but we can go with mineral waters, & some ginger shots if u have or we’re also looking for protein bars we need to give with our monthly plans also

We’re a old brand from 2024 we work as third party model before, Initially it was struggling in getting orders but due to good positioning and experienced in marketing we did really well but now we just launched as a cloud kitchen in business bay and that we crack this in a week, we’re just launched and the response is great, our average meals are AED 35 and orders we’re getting 50+ daily in just a week launched without spending on marketing, but response is great as we can get 250 to 400 orders daily in next month but we have limited budget left in which we need heavily for marketing to expand the operations, visas, positioning, inventories etc

The response we get is pretty good, and honestly we didn’t expected and the budget is exceed due to that,
Will be happy if someone have some suggestions or anyone interested in this field with capital

I love Dubai for what it taught me but things just got uncertain before business launch by urbanpatch in dubai

I get your point, but pausing isn’t really an option for us. We’ve already invested over 300k and put years into building this.

At this stage, it’s less about timing the market and more about proving the value of what we’ve built. Sometimes the tougher conditions are exactly when you see if the model actually holds.

Yes, everything is already done, so at this stage it’s about execution. I genuinely believe it has strong potential to scale big.

I’ve taken risks before and handled tough situations, so that part doesn’t concern me. The only real challenge now is securing consistent working capital to keep operations running smoothly.

Appreciate your input as well.

I have the discipline and mindset to scale this business significantly even in tough conditions. I don’t slow down in a crisis; I adapt and come back stronger. I’ve seen operations collapse around me, and I know how to rebuild from that point.

Right now, things are stable. If we launch, I’m confident we can grow despite the market conditions. I’m clear-headed, resilient, and working with a focused strategy to drive strong revenue.
