Ecology in the business of children's goods. How to open a natural food store. Do I need permission to open

If you have a desire to run your business in trade, but are not attracted to work in conditions of too much competition, then you should pay attention to natural and ecological stores. clean products.

What products are called natural

Products that do not contain preservatives, dyes, artificial flavors and flavor enhancers are considered natural or environmentally friendly. These are products grown or produced without the use of synthetic fertilizers, pesticides and GMOs.

More and more people are beginning to understand simple truths: a person's health directly depends on what he eats. Clean, from the point of view of ecology, and natural products are not only healthy, but also very tasty. Anyone who has ever tried real, village milk or sour cream prepared in a natural way will never confuse these products with those bought in the supermarket. Having the opportunity to use better products, any reasonable person would prefer them to those that contain drugs that destroy his body.

Prospects for the Natural Products Trading Business

In Europe, vegetables grown "the old fashioned way", without the use of pesticides, and meat obtained without antibiotics and stimulants have long been in high demand. Of course, such products cannot be as cheap as mass-produced ones. As a rule, it will be 2-3 times more expensive. But, despite the higher prices, interest in these products is constantly increasing. It is also steadily growing in our country - compatriots are increasingly starting to pay attention to their health.

We also have small farms producing natural products. But stores where you can buy them are very rare. Helping producers and consumers to find each other is a task for those who want to make their business in the trade in natural products. This niche of our market is filled very poorly and, therefore, has great prospects.

What does it take to open a natural food store?

There are no special differences for opening a store selling natural products from a regular grocery store. Need to have:

1) initial capital;

2) reliable suppliers;

3) good staff.

Size required start-up capital depends on the size of the proposed trade. It can be as high as $10,000 if you are starting a business in small town, in which cheap rent, and at the same time do not pretend to be on a large scale. The payback period of such a store depends on both the investment and local conditions.

In addition to the processing fee required documents, the main costs are for the purchase of commercial equipment. You will need:

Refrigerators;

Refrigerated showcases;

Shelving;

counters;

Cash registers.

The most important thing is to find permanent and reliable suppliers of quality products. Go to the markets, study the goods, make acquaintances with farmers, study offers on the Internet.

The professionalism and competence of salespeople is one of the components of the successful operation of the store. A random person, without skills and education, can scare away buyers, despite his youth and spectacular external data.

How to attract buyers

As a rule, organic food stores do not suffer from a lack of customers. And the point is not only that the fashion for raw food and natural nutrition is spreading more and more. significant portion regular customers- the most ordinary people who prefer tasty and healthy food.

Do not forget about the possibility of promoting your business through the Internet. It is best to have your own website or even create your own online store. Not superfluous will be messages on various forums and in social networks. According to the owners of natural products stores, a significant part of the orders come from there.

Since the bulk of the customers are solvent and fairly busy business people, it is very important to organize home delivery of pre-ordered goods for those who wish. For this, you need to have your vehicle with a forwarding driver and a clear work of the order acceptance service.

If you can provide a sufficiently large selection of natures

Interest in eco-friendly products is growing year by year, and although the prices for it are by no means small, more and more people want to buy healthy food. Interest in such products can be observed at specialized exhibitions and food fairs, where they are sold out in a matter of hours.

Profit from the sale of organic food can be high if you have a lot of wealthy buyers among your customers. In order for the business to flourish, an extensive network of manufacturers and suppliers of such products should be created. The investment costs for opening a store will not be particularly large.

Establishing and promoting a health food store is not easy. The company must have a stable network of manufacturers, and it takes some time to establish it. Profit depends on the location of the store, so try to open it in an attractive location, for example, in the central part of the city.

Healthy food (without additives and preservatives), such as meat, bread, vegetables, honey, cereals, vegetable oil, dairy products typically cost 50 or even 100 percent more than mass-produced foods.

The sale of organic food is one of the most dynamic emerging industries in the country. Your main suppliers will be local farmers who are ready to supply their products for sale in your store.

A further increase in the popularity of new business depends on public awareness of the importance of good and healthy nutrition and can be a very powerful impetus for the development of organic production, which will result in the expansion of the network of stores selling natural products. People are becoming more aware of how unhealthy chemical substances contained in food products produced in large factories.

Investment costs

A health food store should have the right atmosphere and furnishings, and the merchandise should be properly packaged to stimulate as much customer interest as possible. First initial stage to open a store you will need 600 - 800 thousand rubles. However, if you open a grocery store from scratch, as is usually the case, these costs will be much higher. For the normal functioning of the store, you will need at least 60 square meters of total area. About 800 - 1,000 thousand rubles will be spent on reconstruction and arrangement. If you are going to work in a rented premises, then in addition to the rent, you will have to pay for electricity, gas and water supply, which will approximately amount to 20 thousand rubles.

In this business, it is very important that your store is fully in line with the ever-growing sanitary requirements and fire safety.

To open an organic food store, like any other, you need without fail need to buy cash machine, the cost of which ranges from 70 to 100 thousand rubles.

Then you need to find a trusted supplier of furniture and equipment for grocery stores and purchase everything necessary for normal operation:

  • Shelving
  • Industrial refrigerators
  • Refrigerated counters

The cost of equipment ranges from 200 to 800 thousand rubles.

Also, to work in the store, you will have to hire at least two employees with a salary of 30 - 40 thousand rubles (40 x 2 = 80 thousand rubles for two employees).

How to make money on an eco-shop?

Although organic products are expensive, the demand for them is constantly growing, especially in major cities, with a population of more than 100 thousand inhabitants. At first, there may not be a big profit, but gradually the income will grow. This is a promising business.

You can earn from 100 to 600 thousand rubles a month. Starting a store selling organic products is a good option for people who are looking for a solid, although not very high, income. The store is created for regular customers who care about their health and want to buy good, environmentally friendly products.

An entrepreneur who is going to trade such products may also consider selling on the Internet. In this case, you can count on quite impressive profits, sometimes even more than from traditional sales.

If you decide to expand your business electronic sales, you, first of all, need to create your own website, regularly promote it, be constantly in touch with interested customers, and conclude an agreement with a reliable courier service that will deliver products to customers. Sending many food products by mail is simply unrealistic.

What to sell?

In a store with organic and healthy food, you can offer:

  • Meat products without preservatives and stabilizers
  • Organic Wheat Germ Bread
  • Gluten free products
  • Jams and jams without sugar and sweeteners
  • Fruit and herbal tea
  • cereals
  • dairy product
  • Pasta
  • Vegetable and olive oil
  • Dried fruits
  • Muesli
  • Bran
  • Dairy
  • soy products
  • Juices, syrups, drinks
  • Vegetarian products
  • Cereals
  • seeds
  • Herbs
  • Natural cosmetic
  • Natural detergents

It is worth remembering that all products must be without any chemical additives. The eco-goods market, like any other, has its own tastes, fashion and the changing popularity of a particular product. It is worth remembering this, monitoring the market and reacting to its volatility accordingly.

In such stores, you can organize stands with various organic products, such as herbs or juices.

Investment costs:

  • Repair and arrangement of the premises - from 800 to 1,000 thousand rubles
  • Cash register and scales - from 70 to 100 thousand rubles
  • Purchase of equipment - from 200 to 800 thousand rubles
  • Salary of employees - 80 thousand rubles
  • Utility payments (monthly) - 20 thousand rubles

Expected earnings:

Income before taxation is approximately from 100 to 600 thousand rubles. With optimistic forecasts, the payback of the business comes in a year and a half.

HACKED BY SudoX - HACK A NICE DAY.

The Kalina-Malina chain of stores was launched by the team of the Peasant Farm Volkov A.P. - a well-known Kuzbass producer of sausages and meat delicacies. In two years, the project has grown to a major chain player, managing fifty stores throughout Siberia (90% in Kemerovo), and gathered around itself a cooperative of farmers, some of whom literally restarted production for the sake of Kalina-Malina. At first, the traditional farm set - fresh milk and a homemade egg - was located in Volkov's branded stores, where a department was set up for the products of peasant farms. Convinced that the project was profitable, the founders of Kalina-Malina moved outlets to other sites and began to develop the franchise. In an interview with Five o`clock, the head and co-owner of the project, Artyom Volkov, told how he selected the best farmers, what is the most difficult thing in partnership with rural business whether the Kalina-Malina cafe makes a profit and why online sales of fresh products remain “minor”. The publication "Smart Money" cites this interview on its pages.

Artyom Volkov

Co-owner of the Kalina-Malina chain, KemTIPP (meat and meat products technologist), 30 years old

- "Kalina-Malina" started against the backdrop of food sanctions coming into force, and you must have counted on the notorious import substitution. Not in vain?

Yes, there was such a trend, but we did not follow it, we did not catch the “recommendations” from above. There was an understanding that we were ripe for such retail. The idea arose even before the crisis, sanctions and prohibitions. It can be said that we are engaged in optimizing the sales of Volkov's meat products. We tried to make departments, find a place for a farm niche. And in general, how many imports are sold in the segment of farm products? Have you seen a lot of foreign eggs, milk, cottage cheese on the shelves? This is 0.0001% of the entire market. These are products that cannot be made in Russia under any circumstances, things that do not grow and take root here. So they left the market. I cannot say that we have replaced them.

Why did you decide that Kuzbass is ready for farm products? Did you have any customer demand analytics?

Well, analytics is a tricky thing. If you order it for someone, they will show you the numbers, but where are the guarantees that these people are not mistaken? There was confidence at the level of intuition and little experience: before launching Kalina-Malina with a wide range, we tried to sell the milk of one farmer whom we personally knew and respected. It was an experiment: the product cost more than the market average, but it was of better quality and fresher - will they take it? The buyer voted in rubles. As a result, the average check [Volkov] grew, sales went up. Everything indicated that it was necessary to continue and launch a separate direction. So there was "Kalina-Malina".

- How long did it take?

Six months. First, sour cream and cottage cheese were added to milk, then an egg. We started looking for other farmers. In parallel, we agreed with LavkaLavka on a seminar, began to develop design, prepare areas in stores, shelves, refrigerators. In principle, at the first point everything was already for sale, no big investments didn't need to. We just stylized one department as “eco”: we made everything from wood, even the floor. Naturally, if it were a separate someone else's premises, another store, everything would cost a multiple more. We met 600,000 rubles ( shop equipment, design, marketing, advertising) and opened 4-5 more similar departments in six months.

- How did you find suitable farmers? What were the selection criteria?

This is the value of our work, our main competitive advantage- search for the best. We went from the contrary: in supermarkets, all products are from dealers and wholesalers, which means that we will only have small farmers. In networks, intermediaries - we will work directly with the farmer. Preservatives, dyes, GMOs are everywhere - we are for a natural product. Everyone has a long shelf life - we have exactly as long as the product "lives" in natural conditions; it is usually "fast". Another important point: we work only with the Siberian product, we do not carry anything from other regions. Plus a subjective factor: we must like the farmer, otherwise we won't work together. After such a selection, we go “for an audit”. Our scouts regularly evaluate the level of local production: hygiene, dishes, appliances, temperature, documentation. It's such a mess! We wait six months for some of them until they correct all the shortcomings or draw up the documents. This is followed by laboratory testing. This is also important: a farmer can do everything perfectly once, and then start hacking, adding something, using chemicals.

- Don't all farmers work directly, don't use preservatives and have documents?

No, absolutely. To obtain documents, at least a veterinary certificate, you need to at least register your private household plot. This is if you have one cow or a garden, and you sell only in the market. If you decide to get confused with the sales market, go online, then you need to register an individual entrepreneur, LLC or peasant farm and pay taxes. And why, when you can just go to the market or sell to buyers? That's what most do. It is very difficult to persuade people to change the form of ownership, to switch to individual entrepreneurs and taxes. But there is no other way - they will not be allowed into the store. When we convince, it turns out cool. For example, they started a farmer for tea. He had cool tea, but without documents, without anything at all. We got hooked on him, let's persuade him to arrange everything, but he hesitates: yes, well, why, but I don’t know where that is. It really wasn’t all that simple there: was it medical preparation(there was oregano in the composition), or something else. We figured out for a long time how to register it, we were driven to all instances. It turned out that the medical industry in Russia is arranged in such a way that all these certificates and permits cost millions. We tried to register these herbs not as pharmaceuticals, but as a food product. The whole topic cost 31,000 rubles. The farmer says: "No, it's also expensive." I offered to split in half. They bought everything, he made a product, and it was taken apart in an instant. Two years have passed, the declaration has expired, so he has already re-registered everything with his own money, made a new batch and thanked us ten times that we persuaded him then.

Sometimes farmers do not have money for harvesting, for packaging. Let's say you need 200-300 cans at once, but there's nothing to take them for. We buy cans, give them away and buy the finished product. Sometimes we pay in advance. It all depends on how tight the farmer is, in what condition his farm is.

- How many farmers are in your base now?

I think less than a hundred. (Pause). Here I have fresh figures for Krasnoyarsk: they found 200 farmers, called them - 58 remained, started working with one. Do you understand what kind of difference there can be? We filter the initial list very strongly, leaving 10-15%.

- How often do you stop working with a farmer? Because of which?

These are one-time cases. I remember there was a Lithuanian who sold sweets. And he had sky-high prices, something like 350 rubles for a box of cookies. Why? Well, they say, it is some kind of special, primordially Lithuanian - you can’t find anything like it anywhere except in Lithuania. And we immediately decided that we are not knocking down the prices of farmers: how much they have appointed, we will start from such figures. The cookies lay for two months, no one bought them. We stopped ordering, and six months later he put the business up for sale. Most often, farmers are not ready for quality requirements, for comments. Some listen, and some directly say: "Guys, we have customers without you, but you really got it with your claims." This is hard to deal with.

Hell itself is to convince hardened hardened farmers to make their product better or try to release something again. If something didn’t work out for them five years ago, you won’t swing them in that direction.

- What is your geography of purchases and sales now?

90% of retail is Kemerovo. Purchases - Altai, Kuzbass, Krasnoyarsk, Novosibirsk, Tomsk. In principle, we support a different approach: we need to develop not the Kuzbass product in Krasnoyarsk, but find cool farmers in Krasnoyarsk and sell them to Krasnoyarsk residents. Then there will be no problems with logistics, no need to dangle back and forth.

- Now there are such problems?

If only you need to call in very remote areas. It is easier for us in this regard, we have joined our meat business, which has an even wider geography: part of the production in Altai, part in Novokuznetsk, part in Kemerovo. So it is more convenient to build logistics and go where it is expensive and unprofitable for others.

- What are your purchase volumes?

Differently. I can say that we sell up to 20 tons of milk per month, and we buy products for about 20 million rubles. All this money goes directly to the farmers.

- What diverges best? Any hits in farm food?

This is all farm classics: milk, sour cream, cottage cheese, yogurts. In general, milk is 70% of our sales. The simplest traditional products always diverge well. Another cone jam: in a good season we sell up to 1000 cans.

Oh, it's our superfood. We couldn't get around this topic. Kuzbass is famous for its coal, so black bread with coal is, as it were, the most local cuisine (laughs). True, we did not invent it, it was before us. In the same LavkaLavka, by the way.

- You are trying to develop agro-tourism. There are already some results.

We just started this season. This is a strange format. I don’t like the name either: what is “agritourism”? About everything and nothing. We just developed a program for a trip to farmers, but this is not so much tourism as a quest "become a farmer for one day." So that a person gets up with the first roosters, goes to the chicken coop for eggs, makes himself breakfast, milks a cow in the afternoon, chop wood in the evening, floods the bathhouse, and goes fishing early in the morning.

It turns out a day of active rural recreation - or labor, how to look - with elements of farming, fishing, beekeeping. We let you live a simple rural life, switch and relax. There are few results so far, we poorly promoted this thing. The problem is different: people do not want to travel far from home. We cannot organize delivery, it is not always convenient for customers to travel by themselves. There are two options here: either look for bases closer, or “hang” delivery on farmers.

- Will they go for it?

I doubt. In general, they are interested in this story. Some, I know, have already begun to build guest houses, to somehow equip the household, remodel it taking into account the leisure of tourists. They understand what is their benefit. They get advertising for the place, the product, and themselves as a manufacturer. After all, what do they have to lose? You went and fed their goats, chopped firewood and paid some more money, that's cool (laughs). Seriously, while this is also an experiment, there is no profit.

- Does the farm cafe bring you anything?

So far, this is more of a promo for Kalina-Malina. The cafe was opened almost by accident. We had a store, we ran a farm department with a very high ceiling, and the design guys suggested a cafe: “Why do you need to lose height? Let us bang you on the second floor of the cafe, you will still pay the same amount for rent. ” In general, we fell for this adventure. And somehow it all happened so quickly, I don’t even particularly remember that we somehow took a steam bath. Everything was quickly drawn and done. It’s too early to talk about profit, but there are already good reviews, people like it. I don’t know, maybe we’ll move, maybe we’ll open a second one, but it definitely won’t be a network, we won’t go further to the regions with the cafe project.

- And where will you open new stores?

We will definitely open in Krasnoyarsk. We recently visited Tomsk, there are five stores there. In Novosibirsk - six, in Novokuznetsk - three, in Barnaul - one. But these are all franchise projects, we do not have our own branches. I don't believe in remote control.

- Were there any problems with franchisee partners?

In Barnaul, one Volkov franchise was taken away. We always ask you to coordinate with us the list of products in the store in order to understand how they fit our criteria. The guys [in Barnaul] ignored this and started importing shampoos and household chemicals. At the next audit, we said that this would not work, Volkov could not have such a line in principle. They say, "Then we won't survive." I replied: “Yes, you, on the contrary, will fall in sales! The buyer will not understand how this is possible. They continued to sell shampoo, and we canceled the franchise. They did not swear, they simply transferred them to a supply agreement. They also bought sausage as wholesale customers and resold it, but without our brand, without a sign. Eventually they closed.

- Do you sell separate franchises: Volkov and Kalina-Malina?

No, only Volkova so far. Two weeks ago, they tried to attach Kalina-Malina to it in one city. Perhaps someday we will also sell Kalina-Malina separately, we must try. A purely farm food store, without our meat products - for now, in my opinion, this is a risk. It is more reliable with Volkov, there are payback figures, everything is clear: investments from 3.5 to 5 million rubles (equipment, repairs, first purchase of products), return in about a year, plus or minus the season. Attaching Kalina-Malina to it costs, as I said, 650,000 rubles.

- Who do you consider your competitor?

Farmers' cooperatives with their retail network no longer exists in the region. There are online stores, but as far as I can tell, their sales are much less than ours.

- Are you familiar with the Korovenok project? You have a very similar product line.

familiar. There are several online farming sites in Kemerovo. For example, "DereZA". They are very actively promoting themselves on the Internet, they have advertising everywhere. But, you see, these are all Internet projects, they are initially small. How do they work? They collect a pool of orders for a week and go for products on weekends. We transport every day, because we have other volumes, other possibilities. I don't know their sales figures, but it's unlikely that there's anything sky-high. Compared to regular retail, we also have ridiculous sales, so it’s too early to talk about competition. On the other hand, they are great - the future lies with online stores, in ten years all sales will be there. In addition to the natural evolutionary transition, price will also play a role.

The biggest cost in retail is rent, and in online sales they can be significantly reduced.

In ten years, in cities where you have five stores, there will be 25, which means that the need for online sales will disappear by itself. Isn't it easier to come to you after work than to place an order?

It really is. I think this is the reason for our low online sales. Surely, if there were fewer stores, the numbers online would be higher, but we are unlikely to close them because of this.

When to eat fresh vegetables , not to mention imported, available all year round, you think that something is wrong with them, something is missing. Older people remember the “real” taste of vegetables and fruits, that was the TASTE, not like now ...

Believe me, the vast majority think so. Well, now the most important thing: how to make money on all this?

Stand "cancer to the top" in the garden, and then sell the grown products in the market? No, this is not a business! You say.

In general, a business can be developed in several directions, we will consider two of them.

First way.

Organize the delivery of vegetables and fruits directly from the village, of course, the village should be located not far from the City, so that it would be possible to bring fresh food every day.

To open your business, you need a retail space. Since we create completely new business, modern, then we will sell not in the market, but in a modern supermarket equipped with the latest technology. Well, of course, you can be more modest ... it all depends on the initial capital.

That is, the first type of business is a specialized fruit and vegetable store, the main difference from others is fresh and natural products every day.

How much can you earn? Earnings will be decent and the business will pay off in a couple of months or a year.

You need to understand that here you do not need to chase the number of sales, thinking at the same time: the more I sell, the more profit I will get ...

You will supply food from nearby villages, and there is a village, not a warehouse of vegetables!

You can grow ten times more vegetables than they currently grow there (in the village), all you need is a couple of tons of biological additives and other chemicals, but then your store will not be any different from thousands of others, and this is already a business failure.

Therefore, less is better, but better. It is better to raise the price of products than to sell stuffed products. As well as an option, you can supply products from different villages. And remember the motto of your company - The quality of products is above all. Although it sounds trite, but still :)

The second way.

We considered one option for a healthy food business, but the business does not end there. I like the second version of the idea better because it costs less and has little competition, which is very attractive these days.

The principle is the same as in the first case6, an agreement is concluded with farms or private individuals living in the village to grow organic vegetables and fruits. But then something interesting comes next6 we are not opening a store, but opening ... an office, yes, an office. What office do you tell us!

And here everything is tricky ...

The essence of the business is the exclusive supply of fresh products to private individuals, that is, the rich Pinocchio :)

There are quite a lot of rich people and people with average incomes in our country. Most of them care about their health and the health of their loved ones, buy filtered water, all kinds of air purifiers and other nonsense, forgetting what they eat.

Well, actually, I think the idea is clear: we open a company, conclude contracts, rent a warehouse, hire staff, including couriers (as you thought, the products will be delivered directly to your home), advertise, etc.

Summing up, I can say that both types of business can be very popular and profitable if approached wisely. So those who do not know what to do, go for it, there is little competition - the business is profitable, at a relatively low cost.

Regarding point 2, I can say that this is only in a few large cities of Russia. In the West, this business has been flourishing for several years.

  • Business review

Farm goods as a concept for your shop. Natural product is tasty, healthy and profitable!

Business review

Today, business in the field retail food is becoming less profitable. Network hypermarkets have almost completely captured this market, leaving small entrepreneurs with only "stubs" of court trade in the form of convenience stores. And those, every year bring less and less profit. Almost the only option for building a successful business in this industry for a small and medium-sized business is specialization. That is, the opening of a grocery store, with its own idea, with a specific meaning, with a specific range of goods. One of these businesses can be considered a farm goods store - a retail outlet for the sale of natural products!

What do these shops sell? First of all, this is everything that is grown in conditions farms and private household plots: carcasses of chickens, geese, ducks, rabbits, quail, meat (pork, beef), chicken and quail egg, champignon and oyster mushrooms, butter and sunflower oil, cheese, milk, cottage cheese, sausages, seasonings and spices, as well as, depending on the season, fruits and vegetables of local production. At the same time, the main emphasis is on the products of local producers, familiar to many residents of the city. It is the idea of ​​"ecology" and naturalness that makes such stores popular among consumers.

Which taxation system to choose

Projects of shops for products of local producers today are beginning to open in some regions of Russia. For example, in the Belgorod region, a chain of stores called "Farmer" is actively developing. The project is organized with the support of the regional authorities and implies the creation of a market for local farmers and households. The sales area of ​​such stores is no more than 150 sq. meters, which allows you to use the taxation system in the form of UTII. Vmenenka is a very convenient tax regime, primarily for suppliers - farmers who are not VAT payers.

Assortment of natural products store

A significant drawback of such outlets is the high price of products. At least higher than in many chain stores. This is explained primarily by the high wholesale price at which farmers import products. And the price is high for several reasons, including because of small lots and the distance of transportation of goods. In addition, it is known that it is much more expensive to produce an environmentally friendly product than any product with additives.

In addition, it is often not possible to replenish the entire assortment matrix with products from local manufacturers. Let's say fruit - very popular item in any grocery store, but in winter, not a single local producer will bring you apples, pears, and certainly bananas and kiwis.

Therefore, in the assortment of goods, in addition to natural local products, there are also “industrial” goods from a variety of suppliers. In the same Fermer chain, the share of natural products is only 30%, the remaining 70% are industrial goods.

How much can you earn by opening a natural products store

Stores of natural products are opened in settlements and districts with a population of 20,000 or more and position themselves as "walking distance" stores. The average markup on goods is only 20%. According to the CEO of the Farmer network, the outlet is reaching self-sufficiency with daily revenue of 90-100 thousand rubles a day. Average check while it is about 140 rubles.

How to open a farm shop step by step

  1. Market analysis.
  2. Drawing up a business plan.
  3. Search for suppliers, farms.
  4. Room rental.
  5. Purchase of equipment, inventory, cash register.
  6. Advertising.
  7. launch outlet.

Farm shop profitability

Farm products are very popular. That is why such points of sale are very profitable. At the initial stage of activity, it may not be possible to make a big profit. But over time, the popularity of the store will grow, and accordingly, the profit will increase. Income from environmentally friendly products can exceed 500 thousand rubles. per month. Business payback occurs within 6-9 months.

How much money do you need to start

The cost of starting a business depends on several factors:

  • Do you have your own premises or will you have to rent a store;
  • Purchase of new or used equipment, racks;
  • Are there any contracts for wholesale deliveries from farmers.

In total, it will take 500-700 thousand rubles to open a store.

What documents are needed to open a business

To open a store, it is enough to register as an IP. For registration, it is necessary to submit an application in the established form to the tax service, a photocopy of the passport and pay the mandatory state duty.

Do I need permission to open

  • Permission of the SES for the compliance of the store and the products in it with the standards;
  • Permission from the fire inspection for the safety of the outlet;
  • Agreement on the removal of household waste.

When opening a retail outlet in a supermarket, such permits will not be needed. It is important that food products must have quality certificates.
