Opening home brew store

If I were to be opening a home brew store where would I find wholesale equipment along with all other homebrew supplies? Also what do you feel the start up cost of equipment and supplies to maintain a descent opening inventory? Any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated. .

Please do not post the same question twice, we promise your post will get read. No need for multiple posts. It’s both confusing for those who think they already posted but don’t see their post and for you when you have to go back and forth for different answers.
