Re "
wholesalers often only sell to someone with a storefront"--that all depends on the individual wholesaler, your business plan, your credit and so forth. In this day and age with ecommerce growing at the expense of storefront business, I would be surprised if this turned out to be a major issue and you were unable to find someone willing to supply you. Plus, if you are primarily an internet business, why are you stocking anyway?? Find a supplier with lots of stock and let HIM do the storage, you buy as you sell it.
.Re:" I
didn't know if I could call it a storefront if I only sell online " at least in my industry (merchant credit card processing) the designations storefront vs. online refers to HOW you conduct business, not so much where you are physically located. In my lndustry, if you sold primarily or solely via internet sales with minimal or no face-to-face retail transactions, we might consider it somewhat of a misrepresentation if you were to claim you were a 'storefront' business just because you were physically located in a storefront.
