Old Stuff as New Business Idea

by Tim Berry on August 27, 2007

There’s an interesting post this morning on Small Business Trends. Steven Teo writes about the nostalgia boom. He mentions Couverture old-style suitcases, the rebirth of old video games, and retro appliances. It reminds me of some new cars which look like old cars, old-style telephones, and drive-in diners. Old telephone

We’ve seen a couple of consumer products which aim to bring back those nostalgic memories. Entrepreneurs worldwide ought to have a look at these business ideas and learn how to exploit the wave of nostalgia among consumers.

Is there a business idea there for you?
