Seasonal Fireworks Sales – Your Guide to Legal and Profitable Trading
Want to make real money selling fireworks in winter? Dreaming of opening your own seasonal stand or tent? Great news—you can legally do it, and we’re here to guide you step by step!
As Poland’s largest fireworks wholesaler, with over 30 years of experience, we’ve helped hundreds of seasonal vendors set up profitable fireworks stands every year. We’re also professional pyrotechnicians, so we don’t just sell fireworks—we use them. And that gives us a unique edge in helping you choose the right products to make your business thrive.
Who Can Sell Fireworks in Poland?
Contrary to popular belief, any adult over 18 with a registered business (with the proper PKD business code) can sell consumer fireworks seasonally—without needing a special license if sales are limited to up to 90 days per year.
It’s a high-profit business with low overhead, especially around December and New Year's Eve. But before launching your fireworks stand, you’ll need to meet a few legal requirements.
Do You Need a License?
No license is needed for seasonal sales up to 90 days per year.
That’s because you’ll be selling consumer-grade fireworks (F1, F2, F3, T1, P1)—not professional-grade pyrotechnics, which do require a special concession.
As long as you’re dealing in these amateur categories and follow safety regulations, you can sell legally and freely.
Legal Requirements for Selling Fireworks
The key regulations come from the Polish Regulation of the Minister of Economy on the safe handling of explosive materials. You can [download the regulation here].
Here are the key points you must follow:
-
Storage Limits:
-
Max 300kg gross of fireworks in a temporary stall (for up to 21 days/year).
-
Max 1000kg gross if operating up to 90 days/year.
-
-
Fire Safety:
-
Minimum two 6L foam extinguishers.
-
One fire blanket.
-
-
No Self-Service Sales:
-
You must operate a physically separated stall if inside or near another commercial building.
-
-
Age Restriction Signage:
-
Clearly state that fireworks cannot be sold to anyone under 18.
-
We offer full legal support to our clients and help prepare all required documents and signage.
Is There a Ban on Firework Sales in Poland?
No. This is a common myth.
You can legally sell and use consumer fireworks all year round, especially on private property. The only restrictions apply to public spaces, where local laws may limit usage to a few days a year.
If you respect quiet hours and avoid persistent disturbances, you are fully within your rights to celebrate with fireworks throughout the year.
How to Make Real Money Selling Fireworks?
Here’s the real secret: success starts with choosing the right supplier.
Too often, beginners look only at prices and discounts. But what really matters is:
1. Work with Experienced Suppliers
Choose wholesalers who’ve been in the business for decades, not months. Only an experienced partner can:
-
Train you in legal and safety rules
-
Help you choose fireworks that actually sell
-
Provide backup stock and delivery logistics during peak season
2. Visit the Wholesaler in Person (If You Can)
Seeing the warehouse with your own eyes ensures:
-
They have real stock
-
They can handle resupply during high demand
-
You’re dealing with a trustworthy company
We welcome visits to our Białystok warehouse and offer in-person product and sales training.
3. Offer Variety
Customers love choice. Even a small stand with a wide range of products outperforms larger stands with limited selection. Fireworks are bought with the eyes—visual variety matters!
4. Don't Focus on Price Alone
Two fireworks with the same spec on paper might look totally different in the sky. The real value lies in:
-
Duration
-
Number of effects
-
Colors
-
Sky spread
Even the same firework can vary year to year, depending on manufacturing quality. That’s why experienced advice matters more than a price tag.
