Hello everyone ![Smiling face with hearts :smiling_face_with_3_hearts: 🥰](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f970.png)
I hope you're well. I am in the early stages of planning to start an online store in Bulgaria, I would be very grateful for your thoughts and suggestions.
For several years I have had a strong desire to start my own online store. After doing some initial research and seeing how e-commerce is growing both nationally and internationally; I think now is the right time to start. My goal is to create a specialized internet business that sells sustainable and eco-friendly goods; from home goods to personal care items.
My observations show that there is a growing market for environmentally friendly products; especially among younger people; greener consumers. But I am aware that joining this industry requires careful strategy and research.
I appreciate your help and time in advance. I can't wait to start this journey and look forward to your insightful advice.
Thank you in advance for your help![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
