About the Business: This is a unique opportunity to own a premier full-service design-build kitchen and bath business. This business was established in 2016 and annual sales have already surpassed $3M in 2018. The company has an excellent reputation and there is lots of room for growth. This design business is especially known for their kitchens and bathrooms. Their showroom, which has been expanded twice, is an excellent showcase and key to providing outstanding service they are known for. In conjunction with the staff and showroom, the process begins with a wide selection of popular design choices, then transitions into expert advice and planning. The business sources and orders the products and follows through to the installation of the final project. Clients include retail customers as well as new construction and remodel contractors.

The ideal candidate to acquire the business should have an understanding of the construction/remodeling process. You would not have to be a general contractor, but having an understanding of how things are built, and knowing the general steps of remodeling kitchens and bathrooms would be helpful. Other helpful skills would include general business management, marketing, and operational skills. This would also be an excellent opportunity for a couple-team.
The owner’s main duties in operation of the business include scheduling, coordinating with the Project Manager, overseeing material orders, reviewing estimates with designers, and managing timeframes with jobs and staff, paying bills, and staying on top of advertising/marketing. The owner doesn’t typically interact with the customers, except in the case of very high-profile customers. The owner’s time requirement on the business is usually a Monday through Friday work week, about 7am to 5pm. He is able to work about two days per week from home.

Enough cannot be said about the location of this store. After submitting the Confidentiality Agreement you will receive more information that will elaborate on this point.
Some possible ways to expand the business might include bringing hardwood flooring, windows, and doors in house. The owner also feels that having a small painting division would also be strategic opportunity. In addition, there are lots of opportunities to provide referrals to other trades that provide services that might be too small or out of the area of the service that the Business does not currently provide.
Increased signage would be something the owner feels would really capitalize on the local traffic. The owner has only relied upon traffic in the immediate location of the retail center for which the business is located in.
Only starting the business in 2016, the business did $3MM in sales in 2018 and continues to have an upward trajectory that will be appealing to a new owner.
