Whether it's jelly beans, chocolate or bubblegum, people young and old, in large metropolitan cities and small rural areas enjoy eating candy. Candy stores are a business that can be run in many ways, and it is a feasible venture to start for both new and experienced entrepreneurs. Running a candy store business can be exciting and profitable, but to be successful, you must carefully plan the launch and growth of your business.

Step 1
Select a niche for your candy store business. For instance, you can specialize in selling organic candy, gourmet chocolates, homemade confections, or old-fashioned and nostalgic candies.

Step 2
Write a business plan to serve as a blueprint while growing your business -- a thorough plan is also essential if you plan to get a loan. Your business plan should include a detailed explanation of your niche and target market, three-year expense budget and profit projections, marketing and public relations plans, analysis of competition and demand for your product.

Step 3
Get the permits required in your state to start a retail business. Depending on where you live, this may include an Employer Identification Number, state Tax Identification Number, resale permit or fictitious name certificate.

Step 4
Contact your state's health department to find out what licenses are needed to start a food business. If you are buying candy wholesale, you may not need to get anything, but if you plan to make your own candies, you may need food manager certification, rental of a commercial kitchen, a food handler permit or food enterprise license.

Step 5
Open wholesale accounts with candy distributors, if you will not be making your own candy. Buying candy wholesale will save you money and allow you to mark up your selling prices. Buy ingredients, flavorings and packaging wholesale, if you will produce your own confections.

Step 6
Lease or buy a storefront for your candy store. Alternatives include a shopping center or mall kiosk, e-commerce store or vending booth at a special event, fair, carnival or festival.

Step 7
Develop services and products to attract customers, such as candy bouquets, delivery of custom candy gifts and candy-dipped fruits.

Step 8
Market your candy store business. Send news releases to local newspapers, publications and media outlets, launch a promotional website and open social networking accounts to connect with existing and potential customers.
