The shop would sell almost every available type of chili pepper from the mildest to the very hottest!! It would also sell seeds and plants for all of the above and advice on growing and getting the best out of these plants..many food stuffs including hot sauces from around the world,dried chillis,preservatives and much much more that is chili.. I am trying to find out if there is as much interest in this in other people as i have myself... if anyone has any tips advise or comments on the subject please please please let me know!!!... THANKYOU...

That sounds like a really interesting concept. Chili is one of those universal foods that almost everyone loves b/c it can be customized to the person's preference.
PLUS! It would be rather cool for a one-stop-shop trip for a big pot of chili. One would not have to spend time strolling up and down and up and down the grocery store aisles.
Here are some other suggestions I thought might be cool:
~have a meat counter to sell the ground beef, sausage, hot sausge, etc. that people put in the chili. you were talking about exotic peppers and whatnot...you can also have exotic meats to put in there. (or at least they can be pre-seasoned exotically!)
~besides peppers, include other veggies such as the onions, green peppers, fresh herbs and the like for people to purchase
~have an area where people can recipe swap. i've heard of a lot of different types of chili and all different levels of hot. maybe just post a board of some sort where people can swap ideas
~of course, once you are established, you MUST have a chili cook-off! :-)
~and finally, you might also want to sell the "sides" that go with the chili such as crackers, crusty bread and maybe even some different types of beer
Your idea sounds excellent. I wish you well!

i love love love chillis and stuff.
you could even have a section on medicinal alternative chilli therapies.. keep it nice and broad with a range of things such as lemongrass, and other ethnic foods to attract a wide range of people
you could also stock an array of authentic asian noodles..
and all those different spices you see in recipes but can never find in the supermarket - you shud play on this when you market it so u can compete
good luck! I wud shop there cos im a spicy fan

Good luck,
Honestly i wish you all the very best.
There may be an educational slant you could put on this to challenge the myths of chili and its uses.
This may open up more opportunities to extend peoples pallates and encourage experimentation.
All the best

I love fresh Red chillis, but they have to be almost as crisp as apples for me to want handfuls of them.
A nice thought though, the shop.
I'm not that much of a curry\chilli person though, so I wouldn't know if it's already been done.
