Scooter Rental Business in the Tropics – Russians First

Many Russians dream of moving to a country with permanent summer – for example, Thailand. But only a few dare to change their lives so drastically. It is about such people that the author of the channel "Kestas | Business Abroad" decided to make a video. Alexey and Elena Arkevich took a risk 8 years ago and went to Thailand. They decided to earn money in an area unusual for Russians – renting scooters, or, as they are called there, bikes. The couple started with just one unit of equipment, not knowing anything about this area. As a result, they have a full-fledged company and 250 scooters, and they work on three islands at once.

So, the video will tell you why it is profitable to rent out bikes in Thailand. There is also such a concept as seasonality, because the "weather paradise" in this country is not at all 24/7, as many people think in Russia. By the way, there are also plenty of downsides to the business, especially if you want to reach a higher level than working independently. For example, you have to hire local residents as staff. And the equipment breaks down periodically. Not always because of its low reliability. It's just that renters sometimes do not take their responsibilities seriously. And you have to choose - keep the client and lose money, or vice versa. At the same time, you will find out how things are in the confrontation with the Thai mafia.
