Working as Agent for a Caviste
I am looking at starting an online wine business, plus selling direct to customers in their homes. I will be working in association with an established Caviste in Bordeaux as he has an established supply base in place. I think the best structure for me to start trading is as a Micro Entrepreneur and because of the social charges it does not make sense for me to buy the wine from the Caviste to then re-sell on to my customers as the margin is not sufficient to cover the social charges payable on the turnover. So, I think I would be better selling wine effectively for the caviste as an agent (albeit through my own website) and be paid a commission by him. This would then be my turnover and I would submit my social charges trimesterly. I think this should work much like a real estate agent
Please advise? Many thanks
