Researching an enterprise...

Hullo,

Slightly odd subject to post about, but I'm thinking a lot of the clever bods who frequent this forum are a bit like me... keeping an eye out for a bargain or money-making opportunity! (Don't worry, I'm not trying to sell something! )

I've become aware of a product manufactured in the US which appears to be gaining popularity (through a website.) I'm curious about how one would go about trying to get UK distribution rights. (I read about a teenager who got dist. rights for the motorised scooters a few years back, and made himself a small fortune) Do you need 'Connections'? How much stock would you be expected to store? Do rights cost you money, or are they just a legal agreement?

Anyone have any tips, or know of any resources that could set me on the right track... websites, etc.?

Thanks in advance.
