Hi,

Yes... You can mention this as a full time work ex. Infact you should use this to your advantage to differentiate yourself from rest of the applicant pool as there are rarely any applicants with this kind of profile.

Just make sure that you don't end up in giving a picture to the B school adcom that you are just superficially involved in your family business and have mentioned these just ti get an admission.

Cheers
