VIVA – A Colombian man named Juan Carlos El Virado, from Medellin, Colombia makes hundreds of dollars a day selling packaged air from his territory to tourists.
Medellin is the second largest city in Colombia, known as the "City of Eternal Spring" for its pleasant weather all year round.
Juan Carlos then started a successful business selling air from the City of Medellin. He took advantage of the fresh air and made a fortune selling city air in a bottle.
"We don't pack air, it's purely we capture good quality city air," Juan Carlos explained as quoted from Crazy Bollywood on Monday, August 29, 2022.
He said that the air particles were collected in 15 to 30 minutes with a device called an air collector and fed into a bottle. So, 100 percent pure air goes into the bottle.
El Verrado, the second largest city in Colombia is also known as a city with flowing springs, beautiful weather all year round, and many people flocking there.
Juan Carlos thought that the air of this city could be bottled and sold to people thousands of miles away.
On the first day, Juan Carlos sold 77 bottles filled with air for US$5 or equivalent to Rp74,485 for each bottle.
Then on the third day, he sold 300 bottles. Now, his ideas and efforts are being talked about on TV and social media.
After that, he also created social media accounts and websites. Some people call Juan a fraud and insist that he only sells empty bottles, but Juan denies this.
Medellin Air has been getting a lot of attention on social media as well as on national television in Colombia, bringing in even more customers for Alvarado. He has since set up social media pages for his unique product to help him sell even more.
