    You mean including also staff wages? Would that also cover a wage for the owner? Or, in other words, a tiny bit of profit so the owner can live out of it?

    At this point, try to put a cap on greed.

      The owner being myself. I would pay my workers a fair price. Would work around school schedules and such. I would meek out the bare minimum for me but that would be it.

        In that case, you should definitely open the shop.

        I think, tough, that your prices will be higher than normal retail, due to volumes and supply chain.

        Also, the local “Wall-Mart” (or whatever corporation) would need to sell a very small loss for a few months to kill you, while subsidizing their loss with other shops in other locations…

        You can’t win. But you can try and people will undoubtedly appreciate that
