Every office, school, shop, store need a calculator for their work and these calculator are available in different shapes and sizes and are popular and Profitable so a good business.

Speaking of it, scientific calculators are so needed by students from middle school to university level. Early of this school year, my youngest brother asked me to buy it. It is quite pricey.:rolleyes:

Selling calculators is a good business but usually we have seen that it is selling in book shops and at least I didn't see that someone selling it in separate shop. Online you can sell it separately.

I don't think this business is going to work in today's world. We have moved pass this era. A child can just Google whatever maths he/ she needs to solve

You can sell it close to schools, they are the ones who mostly make use of calculators but it would be a lot better also sell other things a long as well.

It will be good to have other accompanying accessories with it to lure people to the business. I don't think it will be a wise thing to do just only selling calculator

I don't think that selling of calculators is a business that is going to be lucrative because it is not something people buy everyday which is going to make your everyday sales to be very small.

I'm even yet to see a business venture that sells only calculators. So it will be to have other business along with it to make the business more lucrative and attractive

I think you shouldn't sell just calculators. You should sell all school items. I understand that there might not be capital but you can buikd capital a little more to include textbooks, exercise books, graph books and so on.

Calculators are usually sold by people who deal or stationery businesses. They usually specialise in school related businesses and of course they make some good amount of money from it.
