1. Organic Vending Machines

Organic Vending Machines business ideas

A vending machine is an automated machine that provides items such as snacks, beverages, cigarettes and lottery tickets to consumers after cash, a credit card, or a specially designed card is inserted into the machine.

In some instance, you insert a coin to get whatever you want. Acade games are part of the vending machine family. If you want to know how this machine works, go watch a movie by the name of Lemonade Mouth, or rather search on youtube.

How can this idea be implemented?

If you can manage to get one of these machines, you can make a fortune out of them. Let’s take a candy vending machine for example, you can install it at any local school with an agreed terms of course, I tell you that, those coins the kids will insert in that machine as they buy candy will make you rich.

This is one of the ideas you my friend need to think of implementing. It doesn’t matter which continent you are in, you can make profit out of this. You can also install some of these machines at shopping stores in town and make a quick buck.

Let’s say you install a beverage vending machine, during summer, people get thirsty, and the heat will enforce them to buy drinks from your machine.

2. Car rental (moonlight)

car  renting business idea

Renting a car is one of the ideas we need to implement to make more revenue. Hear me out on this one, how many times have you heard of people getting to a bus stop late, and the taxis are nowhere to be found?

This is the most common dilemma we face in Africa. I want someone to start a business on this idea. Just start a website, and promote it so that whenever a person needs such a service, he or she can just go to your website and get all the information and hire you.

3. Driver Services

3. Driver Services business idea

In Lesotho, most of the car accidents are caused by the drivers who drive under the influence of alcohol. Imagine if people were to go online and hire a driver if they feel they had too much to drink.

These road accidents would go down by 50%. This business model works in such a way that, you as an individual, you register a driver service company. After that, you hire drivers who will be on standby for such emergencies.

When a person feels like he is not in a state to drive, he just call your agency and you provide your services to that particular person. This business model is already being practiced in the USA. We need to implement this type of business down here in Africa.

4. Find a doctor services

4. Find a doctor services business idea

This business model is somehow similar to the driver services model. However, this one works in such a way that you find doctors instead of drivers. Many patients in Africa due to lack of doctors.

Lesotho is one of the countries experiencing high rate of patients who die because a doctor is held in a theater operating other patients. If somehow hospitals were to have a list of doctors who can be called during times when it is rough at the hospital, these uncalled deaths could be reduced by 20% I think.

If you are in the health department, I challenge you to start this type of agency. Promote it and make money through it.

Even this type of business has never been introduced in Africa. Imagine travelling to a foreign country and not knowing where to find hospitals in case you get sick.

Developing countries like Lesotho, most of their information is not available online. It’s a struggle for foreigners whom it is their first time to be in Lesotho to move around our country.

If there can be an agency that is aimed at providing foreigners at the airport or border gate with the information as to where to find which service since it isn’t there online, we would attract more foreigners to Lesotho.
