964, stiff competition in my area Posted by MarlinCreek, Fri Mar-23-07 06:53 PM
It sounds like a viable idea... depending upon the market area.
In my area, every single grocery store (HEB, Wal-Mart, Randalls, Krogers) has this stuff pre-packaged and plastic wrapped based upon each school campus in the area.
Not to mention that the schools also offer this same product when students register for kindergarten or at the end of the year for returning students.
Besides the sourcing issues to be competitive, you'll also have the logistics information to deal with however many schools are in your area.
One possibility would be to try to work with a campus to see if you could supply the stuff in a bag... but most of the kids around here would prefer to pick out their own bag / backpack.
