My Project

Our Marketing class is thrilled to introduce an exciting new project that combines the fun of candy sales with valuable lessons in entrepreneurship.

By creating a school store, we aim to provide students with hands-on experience in business management while also exploring marketing education.

This project will not only foster entrepreneurial skills, but also get knowledge of running a brick and mortar store.

Students will learn essential business concepts such as budgeting, marketing, inventory management, and customer service through the operation of the school candy store.

We will integrate lessons on marketing, discussing the importance of financial literacy, economics, promotion, product development, customer service and more.

The candy store will serve as a fun and engaging way for students to connect with their peers, promoting a sense of community within the school.
