I'm planning to open a chain of convenience stores in India.

If you could pull it off, a chain of stores like the Fry's chain in the mid 80's might be a winner. In those days, you could go to Fry's to purchase hardware prototyping boards, chips, small electronics parts, various soft drinks, junk food snacks, coffee. All the ingredients for imaginative engineers pulling all nighters to accomplish on time delivery of innovative stuff. Some all night fast food might be a winner too. You would really have to do a market survey to see if the Indians work with the same all night fervor that typified the early Silicon Valley days.

You also would have to figure out if the Indian government would permit you to do business there AND whether you could do it profitably.
