What recession proof businesses would you recommend for the upcoming year?

With the talks of the recession coming in soon, do you have any particular business recommendations?

While everyone recommends healthcare and education, does anyone have any specific businesses in mind which are less concentrated?

Any business - consulting and/or operations - that can assist with increasing environmental regulatory compliance requirements & sustainable waste solutions that help companies attain their sustainability/ESG goals should do OK. Especially if those companies have certain permits, training, certifications, track record, etc. However, almost no business is bullet proof so planning ahead is imperative. Good leaders and teams will find a way.

Depends on thetype of recession but usually non-discretionary purchases tend to fare best. Look for businesses where demand is highly inelastic and barriers of entry are high
