Organic Cotton Mill

So I want to start a online business for the fabrics to make cloth diapers i.e. hemp, bamboo, organic cotton. There are very few online stores, you cant get it in like Joann and they are always sold out. So I would get it straight from the mills and open a small warehouse a couple days a week to the public. It would count under the "Green Incentive" for a tax break, but how much would it cost because TONS of people are making them, are so much cheaper than disposables and better for the environment.

Not a bad idea but do not open a building to the public too many issues, theft, being there, when open, handling money..... Even better don't waste your money on renting a building at all, work out of your home and only sell on your own web site or EBay and ship product to customers using UPS, Fedex, or USPS.

It all depends (funny) on how much markup you can do on the product. Can you buy enough from the mill to get a screaming good price. The hardest part of starting a business is staying in business long enough to figure out what you have to do and sell to make a profit. Then pay taxes on the profit, about 50% and have enough money left to buy mac-n-cheese and hot dogs to eat.
