Description of the Business
ABC Photography Supplies and Services is a small photography business established, owned and operated by Jane Brown. The firm sells photo equipment and accessories but may also provide basic photographic services in the future. Ms. Brown chose to commence business as a sole trader primarily because she would be fully in control of all decision making. In addition, she would retain all profits for herself. The firm is located in the busy financial sector of the city at 84 Main Street, Port of Lane.
