Sometimes the best opportunities can come from old concepts that we take out of the proverbial attic and dust off. Here is an example of an idea posted at AOLnews from five decades ago that has gotten new life:
Before there was McDonald’s, there was the Automat….Three young entrepreneurs are hoping to revive the tradition – with a few modern twists – when they open Bamn! Automat in the East Village this week.
In fact, their business concept is to take Automat and marry it with modern fast and convenience foods that today’s under 30 crowd love to eat.
I wonder if there is a market for my old love beads…..
(Thanks to Matt Sells for passing this along).
My gosh, this is automat is still a hit in Europe! Check out the FEBO company, the corporate site at http://www.febo.nl
