I sold candy / snacks in high school & had about 7 other people selling for me as well. I would gross $400-$500 a week with about 80-90% profit margins. I’m convinced I will never have a more fun job than running a candy empire for one year in high school
We had something similar at our school, but the guy selling it was shutdown by the school because the school also sold candy to us lmao...
I did something similar in the 7th grade. I had a sushi place that would deliver custom order rolls the next day to the school (went to a school with some snobby rich kids). Added 2$ profit on each roll and made some good money until the school shut it down.
