thanks a lot for your kind sugestions

I highly appreciate

it was in media that Goverment of Qatar have announced new rules and regulations for foreign worker and investment.

there is no need for local or Qarti Kafeel for job or business.

i appreciate any one who can guide me the source of information for sponsorship

thanks

Stealth - I wouldnt deny that but the percentage of such cases is very very low. Most off the local businessmen are honest godfearing individuals and they abide by the agreements you have with them in the beginning.

QS - Most small businesses in Qatar depend on these guys like Vinodbabu for a start. I see nothing wrong with that.They are the people who introduce you to the trusted local sponsors.

PeterGrifin, I am with you on this...

I would add couple of points:

4. In one week your services are suspended for some food violation, as it looks like you have no clue about local regulations

5. In 1 month your company is blacklisted for the permits violation, as you will rely on some "33598915" from QatarLiving.

Good luck with this start! I personally stay away from you "food business"... too early to die..

This is it:

1- You first ask people on Qatarliving how

2- Then you staff a few idiots who can't speak English/Arabic

3- You buy food and you start inventing cheap meals.

You want to make a business and you are asking people on a forum how?! like REALLY?

You will need a qatari sponsor. Also if you will be managing yourself you will need some proof that you are educated in this field, like a certificate etc.

All other information you can get from the ministry of business and trade, which located near city center mall.
