Hiya,
You may want to consider narrowing your focus and asking more specific questions. What sort of customers are you looking to serve? What problems or needs are you solving for them?
Once you focus there a bit, you'll probably want to start by looking for local importers who specialise in the type of products you're looking to sell. Your volumes probably won't be high enough to source directly at first without risking carrying loads of unsold inventory. This has the added benefit of eliminating all the trade / import paperwork, as they sort it themselves.
Good luck!
Cheers,
Wyatt
