I knew it was bank, but i just googled it..

 

 

One of the most profitable items that a retailer can sell today is draft beer.

 

Increase your establishment’s profitability by properly installing and maintaining a draft beer dispensing system, and implement a beer friendly glass program to ensure maximum appeal and profits.

 

 

Purpose The purpose of this document is to bring awareness to the profits that can be realized by dispensing draft beer in an on-premise, retail account.

The Draft Beer Profit Model

The Profit in

One Keg Each 15.5-gallon keg (½ Barrel) contains 1984 ounces of beer.

 

Realistically, you could expect to get at least 130-140 16 oz pints (if a 16oz pint is served with a ¾ inch head it has approx 14oz in the glass) from that keg.

 

If a pint of beer was sold for $3.00, this would generate a gross profit of $390-$420.

 

The net profit from a keg based on the aforementioned figures (after subtracting the wholesale cost of the keg) would be approximately $310-$340.

 

 

The Profit from

 

 

5 Kegs/Week In a retail establishment if only five kegs a week are sold, a profit of over $80,000 a year in possible.

 

 

5 kegs/week X 52 = 260 kegs/year

 

260 kegs X $320 = $ 83,200 net profit

 

! Imagine selling 10 kegs a week or more

the college i went to was in a town that didnt allow for hookah bars...too bad..cause opening up one there would make someone rich...very liberal little town, but want to keep it a wholesome little town...so no porn, no hookah, no big box chain stores...they literally went around with petitions trying to not allow target and walmart to open up shop in town..target finally managed to open on the outskirts of town, but walmart didnt.

 

anyways, back to hookah bars...ive been dragged to a few by homegirls (especially since its the only place to chill thats open till 3 or 4 am ...cause remember, im in cali where last call is at 1:45am and they close everything by 2am)

 

one hookah bar in my city called cobblestone is a grimey hole in the wall down the street from a state university...ive been here a couple of times, but is mostly high school teens (which they dont card for tobacco) and douchebag college kids and middle eastern wanna be gangsters...they sell foods like chicken sammiches...burgers...fries...kabobs...etc etc...they also sell sodas, snapples, and tea....they have a shitty dj too that spins nonstop shitty hip hop on weekends and arabic music on weeknights.

 

there is also another hookah bar in midtown that is mad bourgeois...its nicer on the inside (with those big pillows and nice decor)...they sell good food...but pricey...like a hummus appetizer is $14 with some cut up pita bread....they also have tea...first time i tried creme brule was there....classy but over priced.

We use to go to one round here' in high school, it was always a shit hole.

 

When you're under 21 though it can be nice to smoke hookah, play pool and ours actually played decent music and had classic movies playing.

 

It was more of a meet up spot, buy one hookah and hangout with like 20 people.

 

The servers there were assholes, and pushy and thats what basically made me never go back once I was 18ish. Im sure you could make money in the right area, just dont have douches work for you and dont nag people to fucking death.
