The target is a branded eCommerce retailer in the evergreen Baby Health & Wellness Space, selling direct to customers by way of its organically ranked Amazon FBA Seller Central Account and a branded, fully integrated Shopify Website. Boasting excellent seller feedback on the Amazon Platform, as well as multiple Amazon’s Choice Badges for many keywords associated with the products sold by the company, this is a turnkey online retailer in a highly sought after sector (Baby). The company has achieved very low overhead by utilizing the Fulfilled by Amazon (FBA) model, and great margins thanks to an attractive $32 average ticket price. With an impressive growth trajectory, all tied up with a completely branded and trademarked product presentation, this is a high demand business that is ready for scale.
Ownership has recently been given the opportunity to become a CFO/co-founder of a tech startup; thus, the company is being sold to focus on the next endeavour. The company has only touched the surface of where it can go in this sector – it will make an outstanding addition to any existing eCommerce retail portfolio in the apparel, baby or kids’ space, and offers the fast-paced entrepreneur of any skill level an opportunity to step into one of the hottest segments today as a standalone player with real pull and platform scale opportunities available on day one.
Thanks to its streamlined, low-maintenance model, very little time is necessary to run this business as-is. The company has dialed their focus into a well-executed lineup of 8 high-volume SKUs, with space available for additional SKUs not yet on offer from its multiple existing suppliers.
Founded in 2015, this eCommerce Company is posting over $1.3 million in TTM sales with earnings of $335,000. The company’s books and records have been reviewed and look clean, making this a great opportunity for a loan using one of Website Closers’ Lending Partners, which offer the opportunity for qualified buyers to put as little as 10% down on a business and amortize the loan over an entire decade at low interest rates. Imagine buying a company generating $335,000 in earnings for as little as $105,000.
The company does not require warehouse space, since all inventory is placed with Amazon’s FBA warehouses as well as those of its suppliers. This allows a new owner a great deal of flexibility from both a location and scale perspective. The company can be operated from any location, and by not having the overhead, capital expenditures or other headaches of a warehouse, the new owner can focus on scale.
Regarding scale, this Internet Company can be further developed in a multitude of ways – almost immediately following acquisition – including – expanding the company’s own eCommerce website (and developing an SEM plan accordingly), expanding product and category lines using the valuable brands already developed, and growing the company internationally by using Amazon’s FBA warehousing located around the world. Additional opportunities include the development of wholesale distribution, a retail arm and more social media engagement.
