    Kacchi King is a take away food shop specialized for food lovers, especially for those who are from Old-Dhaka (puran Dhaka people) and now misses the foods of that place. We know that Old Dhaka is so famous for delicious, mouth-watering foods. Even at times of Ramadan, people’s first choice is Dhakaiya iftar. The main purpose for creating our business is that many people of Old-Dhaka who have left that place and shifted somewhere in new Dhaka cannot enjoy the same food and taste, so we thought of bringing them the same food in close proximity. To get the popular foods of Old-Dhaka they have to actually go to Old-Dhaka, because very few items are found at other places. Due to constraints like traffic jam, people can hardly move from here and there. So we want to open at a prime location, Banani and therefore, we would be selling only the popular foods of Old-Dhaka, brought exclusively from respective shops where these are made. We would sell the iftar items as well. There will be one pick-up van which would bring all the foods from the different store of puran Dhaka. As we would also give home delivery that is why there will be two motor bikes. Our packaging would be very comfortable to carry bags. It will be tightly packed so that the food doesn’t get cold easily. Our shop is dedicated to consistently providing high customer satisfaction by rendering excellent service, quality products, at an acceptable price/value relationship. We try to maintain a friendly, fair, and enjoyable relationship with our customers and try to show our hard work through improving our services. The other reason for opening this type shop is, this is our traditional food. By serving all traditional food we can attract foreigners living in Bangladesh. Lastly, this concept of only takeaway food shop is new in Bangladesh, so we would like to introduce it.…
