Top 100 Business Ideas in June

From Gaming Retail Windows to Student Startup Guides

— June 20, 2015 — Business
With vending machines, innovative services and apps, many of the top June 2015 business concepts prioritize creating convenient experiences above all else. Two of the best examples of this include a new concept store from Starbucks that does away with lines and DUFL, a novel travel service that takes care of packing and handling bags so that trips can become completely suitcase-free. On the topic of travel, the integration of vending machines that dispense skincare products at the Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport takes care of passengers who suffer from dried out skin after long, dehydrating flights.

On the consumer side, frequent shoppers will value innovations like the Plenti app from American Express, which makes it possible to earn loyalty points at one store and then put the perks to use at another retailer.
