Is there a legal age you have to be to own a retail store?

I was wondering how old you have to be to own a store. I am pondering opening up a Video Game store.

Probably 18 so that you can sign contracts with suppliers and get bills in your name.

WTF? Is there some kind of story behind this post?

At least 18 to begin with since you have to be able to enter legal binding contracts as an adult.
