Looking to hire an owner operator

Thanks for the link. After talking to one of my pards about this today we've remembered the fairly windy road that it would take to get back there. Taking into account that we'd actually only be able to process about 5000 gallons a day we switched gears and I've been looking at stuff more like this.

For 38k plus diesel plus insurance plus me getting a CL I think I may have found the sweet spot to all this. My buddy made a fine point that we'd never actually be able to get a long trailer back past these backroads and we couldn't process as much water as a full tanker would hold anyway. I get down in the weeds. He pulls me out.

 

Both, we definitely want to start our own brand serving 5 gallon home and business as well as the smaller portable sizes but will be able to do private label as well with custom bottles since we'll be blowing our own. Selling bulk water is also open. The main thing I've learned thus far is don't compete directly with Nestle if you can at all help it!

 

I just wish the water had a higher mineral concentration. It's all out of Limestone bedrock so it's extremely well filtered (probably for about 800 miles from the Great Lakes) but it doesn't have enough Calcium in it to call it mineral water.

 

Actually, FDA specifically says that if you do this you cannot call it mineral water which is to say I'd already considered fudging

 

Good thought and definitely something to check into. You guys are great, really.
