Hello,

I have a business idea I would like to bounce off of a lawyer and any other member of the forum. Particularly, I am trying to understand some of the legal barriers.

For context, the business is a micro brewery/ micro distillery. The production would be done on a farm. Sales would be made in restaurants and bars.

Any suggestions of a good lawyer or thoughts/ comments on the business will be appreciated.

You are posted in the right section to get a response from and excellent lawyer, Fabio Guzman. He can respond to the part about possible legal barriers to setting up a micro brewery.

Aside from having to import all the equipment and every ingredient that isn't water, purifying the water you use, sourcing bottles and labels and caps, creating a distribution system, finding a market, avoiding a labyrinth of legal issues and having to pay off customs, what could possibly go wrong?

I looked into this years ago.

The single biggest barrier is no market and price. You won't be able to sell enough to make any $$$.
