How to Start Ice Block Making Business

To start, you need a shop, a freezer or freezers, or preferably an ice-block making machine; a generator that can effectively power your freezer or machine; a water source and nylon bags. Then you can also have a bus or car that takes your ice block to your target market apart from those who come to buy from your home or shop.
