Well I was about to ask a very similar question, thanks for asking anyway.
I have some genuine ideas that could be turned into some serious business how ever I will only mention few that possibly requires low cost. I also haven't been in the middle east yet so sorry if my proposed ideas sounds irrelevant.
In my opinion,
1) Consultant firm of any kind, education, job, business advice, holiday & travel agency.
2) Coffee shop business, if you are successful like other brands and chain coffee shop you can expand it as well.
3) Franchise or Brand Retailer, such as retailing only Samsung or Apple products.
4) Restaurants / Fine dinning.
5) Fashion Retailing, You can source garments from China, India & Bangladesh at low cost but you can choose brand from Europe or America.
6) IT Coaching Centre, IELTS training Centre.
7) Internet Services provider.
8) Automobile Maintenance & servicing centre.
9) Stationary & office supplies.
) Consumer Electronics & servicing Centre.
) Book store.
) Accessories retailing.
Well I hope few of these ideas you will find useful, if you know any serious investor in GCC ask them to get in touch with me :P.
