Business Description

Highly Profitable “Green” specialty product business available, owner retiring.

This well-established Portland business has positive cash flow that has historically produced net income in the top 5% tier nationwide. Last year’s sales were over $750,000. Seller’s Discretionary Cash Flow was $267,682. The founders are ready to retire, and they are willing to assist the right buyer in a supportive transition relationship.

The asking price is based on the broker’s detailed and objective price opinion, $763,125 plus modest inventory at seller’s cost. Inventory levels vary; the current level is approximately $50,000. At this price the historical performance equates to a 27% return on investment (conservatively based on a weighted average of three years—not just the best-performing year.)

The company focuses primarily on sales of high-quality “energy-efficient, green” building products that are in high demand. Consumer demand in this category is expected to continue expanding, providing a stable base for continued growth. Market segments include residential and commercial customers.

Established in Portland more than 30 years ago, the company is recognized regionally and nationally as a leader in the field. It represents leading local and national manufacturers with proprietary relationships. The large and diverse customer base includes repeat customers who require ongoing services.

Sales and income are generated through retail and online channels. The company also provides local service, repair and installation throughout the year, to provide steady income and minimize seasonality.

This business does not require a high overhead storefront, only a small warehouse (730 sq. ft.). It does not require specialized degrees, licensing, or extensive training to be successful. Well-developed business systems and subcontractors (no employees) enable the owner to manage with a minimum of time allocated. A manager salary allowance has been figured in, without mark-up or multiplier in calculating the business value.

Co-op marketing partnerships with major manufacturers provide a big advertising impact without a big ad budget. This partnership includes national advertising campaigns tailored to fit the company’s specific regional needs, plus top Internet placement with a superb website and search engine optimization.

The company has earned top recognition from major consumer rating services including: Better Business Bureau A+, Angie’s list- “Super Service Award” provider every year. It has “Excellent” ratings on Google and Yelp.
