School candy reselling business
A kid-run reselling business buying candy in bulk and selling single pieces to classmates for cash during the school day.
The idea, in plain language
A kid-run reselling business where a student buys candy in bulk and sells single pieces to classmates for cash during the school day. A 13-year-old in Australia sold 50+ lollipops a day at 100% profit margin, building a small cash business from her school. Revenue is pure margin on bulk-to-single pricing, and startup cost is essentially one bulk purchase. It is a literal schoolyard hustle rather than a model suited to adult operation.
Where the sources agree
- The product is bought in bulk and resold as single units
- Margins can reach essentially 100% on the per-piece markup
- The customer base is the school itself
