Lemonade event stand in Kenya

Sell lemonade at permitted events in a consistent cup size.

A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE

Fictional event stand: 60 lemonade servings of 250 ml, with the exact lemon/sugar/water specification approved by a qualified food operator. Lemon purchase and water figures below are hypothetical yield-trial allocations, not a recipe. Only traceable potable water and ice, if used, enter service. No fruit-water purification, detox or shelf-stable bottling claims are included.

Who is the first customer?

Event visitors and organizers.

Test the offer

Trial one small event with a defined water source and ingredient recipe.
