Wholesale Nursery

Status as of Nov-21-2008 at 06:07 PM: Off The Market

Business Summary

This nursery in central Texas has a great reputation and potential for growth. It grows a full range of plants, with a focus on geraniums, poinsettias and hanging baskets. It mostly sells wholesale to large box stores and independent nurseries, but it also does some retail sales. The business has no competition in a 100-mile radius. It is known for providing great service and only the highest quality products. The employees have been with the business for years and are incredibly knowledgeable. The business has strong sales and great relationships with purchasers for several retail nurseries. A new owner looking to expand gross sales easily could do so by adding weekend retail hours and aggressively seeking business from box stores and independent retail nurseries.

The business is located on 4.5 acres on a state highway. The nursery has 18 greenhouses, a 2,750 square foot head house working area and a 400 square feet seeding area. The site also contains a 14,000 square foot building that has a two-bedroom apartment and a closed convenience store/gas station. The owners closed the store in 1996 and use it for office space. It still has three aboveground gas tanks and three working pumps.

The business is in the Texas Hill Country, between San Antonio and El Paso. It is in a small, tight-knit community. The school district is ranked at the top in the state, and the area is a great place to raise a family. Timber, bluffs and running streams surround the community and provide it with ample hunting and fishing. The town is within a short drive of several large cities.

The owners would be willing to stay on as long as needed after the business sale to facilitate a smooth transition.
