I looked into starting a business one time for something drastically different, but the principles may be the same. I called up the actual companies of what I wanted (in your case Sirius, Atama, Gameness, etc.) to see what I needed to do to start my business.

Most of the companies said that to distribute their products, I would need just a business checking account, a sign, some type of paper saying I'm an inc. business (I forgot what it was, but a business lawyer can easily get it) and a business address in order to sell their products.

So it's not really much. Then they said they'd send me catalogs to put in my store, and that even though there was no minimum orders I had to do, they recommended me getting a few pieces to stock in the store to show customers. Then essentially each order would've been done by drop shipping whatever pieces at a time (no minimum).

Pretty easy way to start a business, as there was no initial cost in merchandise that I had to invest. If it's that easy with these gi manufacturers, you're in luck! Oh yeah, and they also said there were floor level prices, and that if I was selling for cheaper than their minimums they no longer do business with me.
