Thanks for the posting.
There are many great programs to apply to since you pretty much have no geographic preferences.
As for your candidacy, it is strong but being employed in a family business is a challenging situation and needs to be carefully presented. Also, you are in a competitive demographic so competition at any competitive program is going to be high. I also hope that you score above a 720 on your GMAT -- as anything below this level will make you less competitive of a candidate.
I recommend that you consider the following schools:
North America: Ross, UNC, Tepper, Rice, Notre Dame, Emory, Toronto, Queens,
Europe: IE, IESE, Manchester, Rotterdam,
Asia: Melbourne, HKUST -- and of course IBS and the more competitive ISM's
Good luck.
