Branded & Scalable Distribution Company

This opportunity is for the acquisition of a highly profitable importer, wholesaler, and retailer of consumer products. The business is based in the mid-Atlantic region with operations in 4 states.

Their unique business model has allowed them to grow consistently over their 20 year history with gross profit margins currently in excess of 75%. They have invested significantly in developing the business during the past 3 years… opening their three largest locations since 2006.

The scale of the operation has allowed them to develop strong supplier relationships within their industry. Today, most of their product is produced specifically for them and sells under their own private label brand.

Their distribution model includes a mix of stores (where they own the real estate) and a well run seasonal operation which allows the business to expand and contract in an extremely efficient manner during peak demand.

This business has been 20 years in the making and would be very difficult to replicate. State regulations make it difficult to operate anything but a professional operation and the cost benefit to large, direct importers is significant.

The business is very healthy and the model is well developed. The current owners believe that the time may be right for a larger company or investment group to take what they have developed and to build on it. The current owners will remain involved during an extended transition period subject to mutually agreeable terms.
