Hi everyone,
I've thought of a line of stock to sell at a market, however, I'd like some advice.
I'm thinking about alternative clothing/accessories...
Mainly Belts, fashion jewellery, small line of tees etc...
However,
- I'm not sure how popular these would be either immediately or indeed how consistent sales would be...
- I'm not sure how to plan for sizing, particularly belts (a supplier I've found doesn't seem to state sizes?)
- It seems that, if it were successful, judging by competition (the high street, granted) there would be a good margin in this however... but how does one mark up prices properly?
Also, I was thinking that I could 'test the market' so to speak... would it be worth while giving it a try with say 20 different items? (obviously it wouldn't be literally 20 items, it would be 20 boxes of each item)
any suggestions on what would be the best course of action to look into all aspects of market selling?
Thanks for any input...

Also, what insurances/licences would be required (especially if just temp)
