Will it be good to manage a business selling only school supplies? I always see here school supplies store busy entertaining customers, especially during the school opening. The business owner hits big cash during this period. There are other things to sell like cards for any occasion, stickers the kids and high school students like, but most importantly, notebooks, books, magazines, different kinds of ball pens, tapes, and more that are needed in schools.

Selling stationery and school supplies can be profitable. There is a shop in the Mall near my residence. As there are many schools nearby, I noted that students love to visit the shop.

The business for the selling of the stationery and the school supplies at large is deemed very profitable indeed. However locating the business near schools and other learning centers could more Ideally for sure.

Selling stationery is a lucrative business because students as well others require books, pens and other material. Increasingly digital data is hacked, so people prefer offline storage methods like books for important information.

A school supply if managed well can boost sales apart from helping the students find what is needed in school. Parents flock to the store with their kids and let them choose the notebooks and pens.

When you can site the business of school supplies in a location that is in between two or three schools, you would sell like it is magic. That's the natural catchment for such a business.

Install your business like this in a strategic location easy for people to find like in school, in the market, or Divisoria. You can also publish it on media so people will be aware of where to buy school materials easily.

I believe that selling school supplies or stationery is an excellent business idea, especially if you place it in a location where there is a lot of foot traffic. You will be able to sell your products to non-students as well. It is important, however, to ensure that your prices are competitive.

If you intend to operate a business like selling school supplies, you cannot create or manipulate the prices of the school supplies. there is standard pricing we call Suggested Retail Proce ( SRP) in our country.

If I am working at the university, I am sure that I can gain a lot of money from selling school supplies. How much more if I am in charge of school canteens? It will be a great profit for me to handle.

You can rent a space at the university canteen. You write a letter of intent to the canteen in charge and if lucky, you can start right away. You better inquire.

Sales of school supplies is a very lucrative business, especially now that schools are just resuming. A lot of people would want to make changes or replace their supplies .
