I want to start my own business distributing/ wholsaling designer (
Gucci, Yves Saint Lauren, etc.) products preferrably handbags to
Mexico. If all goes well I would like to have my own store; however, I
do not know where to start. I was wondering if it is better to go
directly to the manufacturer so I can get the lowest price or if I
should go to a supplier/ middle man? How do I go about finding the
manufacturers of these products? Do you think they would allow me to
buy their products even though I am not a big retail chain?
