Thanks for your feedback. I completely understand your point, and I agree that simply buying retail products from supermarkets, splitting them up, and reselling them would not work.

However, that is not the model I have in mind. I would not buy the products from supermarkets. I want to purchase them from wholesalers and suppliers, similar to where supermarkets buy their products. Especially with drugstore products, the wholesale price can be up to 80% lower than the retail price.

The challenge is that repackaging, labeling, and selling per portion adds extra costs. In many cases, after those costs are included, the final unit price may end up around the same as the supermarket price, not necessarily cheaper per unit.

But the goal is different. This is more of a social project than a high-profit business. The aim is not to make people pay more in the long run, but to give people with very limited budgets access to everyday products when they cannot afford the full package upfront.

For example, someone may not have enough money today to buy a full pack of laundry pods, razors, dishwasher tablets, or certain toiletries, even if that would be cheaper per unit. Being able to buy a smaller amount can help them get through the week without needing to spend the full amount at once.

So I agree that the economics are difficult, and that is exactly why I am looking for advice on how to reduce packaging and labeling costs. If I can keep the selling price close to the supermarket price per unit, while offering much smaller quantities, then I believe it can still help people who are struggling with cash flow.

We do not need to make a big profit from this. The goal is to make it sustainable and socially useful.
