    Selling homemade soups and chutneys

    Chutney will naturally have a long shelf life because of its high sugar and vinegar content. Soup would need to be refrigerated and used within a few days. You can sell from your pub without issues and you can do one off events like a market or event to test opinion, if you plan on selling...

    Should I pay for a property lease from a failed business?

    Unless that particular location has some value, the lease has no value, it is a liability not an asset. As for the location, what is the occupancy rate of business premises in that area? What is the market rate for similar premises in the area? If the occupancy rate is at or close to 100%...
