This is an opportunity to acquire a well-established wholesale/distribution
business specializing in cosmetics and fashion accessories, with a long
operating history (est. 2010), broad SKU selection, and deep vendor
relationships. The company serves a diversified customer base including local
retailers, out-of-state buyers, and international customers.
2025 Situation & Current Status (Transparent + Buyer-Friendly)
In January 2025, a minor incident in a warehouse area led to an extended
insurance claim process and restricted operations through much of 2025. During
this period, the owner maintained minimal staffing and limited operations while
the claim and settlement negotiations progressed. As a result, 2025 financial
statements reflect a non-normal year.
Clean Closing — Buyer Takes Over Without Legacy Payables
To make the acquisition straightforward, the seller will pay off all accounts
payable and debt at or before closing. Buyer acquires the business free and
clear, with no AP or debt assumed.
Right-Sized Facility Economics
The seller has negotiated a go-forward facility plan to lease only the first
floor at $14,000 per month, providing a leaner and more profitable operating
footprint.
Inventory & Assets Included
The sale includes approximately $1.58M of inventory (per seller-provided
statements) and all FF&E required to operate the wholesale showroom and
fulfillment workflow.
Working Capital Requirement
Buyer is expected to inject $500,000 working capital post-closing to support
inventory replenishment, staffing, and ramp-up.
Investment Highlights:
*Established platform (14+ years): proven wholesale/distribution operations and
repeat customer relationships.
*Diversified buyer base: local, out-of-state, and international customers.
*Strong supplier network: 40–50 suppliers, including recognized Korean cosmetics
brands.
*Inventory included: approx. $1.58M plus all FF&E in the asking price.
*Lower fixed-cost model: negotiated $14K/month first-floor footprint.
*Clean closing: seller pays off all AP and debt so buyer starts without legacy
liabilities.
*Optional downside-protection structure: buyer may elect a seller-managed
operating model with defined performance terms (see Support & Training).
*Growth upside: online wholesale, customer reactivation, and
sourcing/merchandising optimization.
