Robert :Comments:
Can you tell me where I can buy product 08105 (Chanel No.5 dusting powder) in
Southaven, Mississippi or Horn Lake, Mississippi? We have Wal-Mart, Fred's,
Family Dollar, Dollar General, and Dollar Tree stores in these two
cities. Thank you!
Terk :Dollar Tree should have the product, If they do not have it let me know how many you need, and I will see if the distributions center can deliver it.
P.S I Don't sell product. However I can point you in the right direction.
Baig: What’s the first step in setting up my own Dollar store?
Terk: Have a good location and a business plan. The location will determent how much
traffic and the customer base that you will have. The business plan will help you
with any financial institution and keep you organize and focus.

A. Altaf :Some time ago a Japanese company "Daiso" & fairchild group in a joint venture opened a "Daiso" store at Richmond Vancouver in Canada ($2 each item) similar to Dollar stores. I wonder if you know about it, & if you have done some research about it. (daisocanada.com). On the similar bases if I want to open a store in Vancouver, Independent or a Joint Venture, with quality products, who will be the best people to contact? preferably Canadian company, but could be a US based. Regards, A. Altaf PS/ are you a Canadian or a US based?
Terk :Mr. Ataf
Sorry for the delay, I was over sea on Vacation and
will be posting the photos soon.
Now for your questions
a) Yes I heard of them, Daiso is from Thailand ( Not
Japanese ) they have a web site. Daiso the company
name is Thai Daiso Intertrade Co,. Ltd.
Check out the web site, its simple and to the point.
Fairchild Group also has a web site, and they are an
Investment Group, you can invest with them from real
estate, trading, retailing ( Franchise ) and other
investment opportunities.
b)Canada vs US : If the store is base in Vancouver
then the labor for the setup should be Canadian,
however when it comes down to the merchandise, shop
for it. Remember the majority of the products come
from China, the only difference is that, the
manufactures in China, make certain quality products
for the US and others for Canada as well as the rest
of the global market.
c)I’m Global, because I study the world economics and
this web site is to help people, I will not ask for
money. It’s free advice. So if you have any question
please ask.
