What are the procedures and how much does it cost to open a small bookstore?

According to the relevant provisions of the Regulations on the Administration of Publication, as long as individuals have certain funds and business premises, have received professional training and obtained corresponding certificates, they can apply for a publication distribution (retail) license in the district (county) cultural bureau to be applied for, and obtain a business license from the administrative department for industry and commerce, and then they can engage in book retail business.

Individuals should submit the following documents:

1. Application, indicating the name of the store, business address, name and address of the operator, etc. ;

2. The permanent residence certificate or residence certificate of the city that is not registered in this city;

3. Proof of the effective use of the fixed business premises (if there is a lease agreement, the lessor's property certificate shall be provided);

4. The plan of the business place;

5. Bookstore names (more than three for standby);

6. The identity certificate and professional qualification certificate of the operator.

The above suggestions are for reference. As local cultural departments may have local regulations, it is best to consult the cultural departments when handling.

The fund for opening a store depends on the size of the store, that is, the decoration, which is about 30,000-50,000.

Extended data:

The first problem of opening a shop is the location of the bookstore, which determines the location of the bookstore.

For example, first make clear the location of the bookstore and then find the store address purposefully, so as to maximize the target customer base; If you already have a specific store, you need to choose the business category according to the location of the bookstore and the existing and potential consumer groups around you, and at the same time establish your own characteristics according to their consumption habits and tastes.

Generally speaking, there are cultural and entertainment venues, commercial office buildings, mature residential areas, university areas, commercial areas and other places nearby, which are all optional places to open stores. Bookstores with individual venture capitalists are generally small in scale, and both mobile and fixed passenger flow are very important. Therefore, it is best to choose places with many people around the community or university area, such as stations, fast food restaurants, theaters, etc., and rely on stable community readers. Bookstores in university areas try to avoid too many bestsellers, and books that are too academic near office buildings will not sell well. If you open a professional bookstore near the relevant place, you will get twice the result with half the effort.
