I would like to start a small business supplying null sec. I would like to do it away from the Jita area...try to build up an area out and away from there. Preferrably in Amarr space. Also, instead of paying miners for the ore, would it be feasible to give a cut of the profit made off the sale of our goods?

I'll add more to this as I have time.

Any advice would be welcome! I am still doing research in this area. I run a small business in RL, and would like to see how it works out in Eve.


Thank you!

I would have thought the profit would help pay whoever supplies the minerals/blueprints/slots/fuel/freighters.

Welcome to md. Please be as detailed as possible. You will be paying which miners? Your corps? For ore. From where to where? How will you move it, what the risks, how much capital do you have, how much might you need? What % increase from highsec should you charge for your goods in null. Will this profit offset possible ganks, and losses? Is it prone to heavy competing and undercutting? Will you pay black frog or pushx to move your goods? Do it your self? Should you pay for blue standing?

Be descriptive, what do you want to be advises about ?

Sounds like you are shooting for the Amarr Hub, though what will you be supplying in Null Sec? You will need a jump freighter to haul anything real (unless you plan on making several trips in a covert freighter). You could do a trial in low sec where you still have gate sentries to sorta protect you if that is the risk you want.
