I was wondering if there is either a) any way to hack zen cart to do the following, or b) another cart program (preferably open source).

I would like to be able to setup a shop for multiple clients for doing closeouts on their products.

Picture this is you will:

Sears, JcPenny, Target, etc. all would log into the site and add and modify their own inventory and would drop ship for your customers. So you would have multiple inventories with trade names on them legally, and yet the customer would think they were shopping at your one stop shop site.

Does this make sense, and would it be possible with zc or some SERIOUS hacking of the core code.
