Reason for Sale
The owner has estalbished and developed this business since 2019 and is ready to let it go to a determined, motivated buyer that wants to take it to the next stages of growth.
This has been the owner's pride and joy since establishment and genuinely wants to give the brand and products the best chances of success.
About the Business
Esablished in 2019, the business was created to compete with major competitor brands by offering a genuine alternative to dairy milk, leading with cleaner ingredients, a stronger nutritional value, a much creamier texture, neutral taste and improved value - all created from someone that was already a consumer of dairy alternatives who set out to create the ultimate alternative milk.
The asking price of this business factors in the major R&D costs involved to create the products, from concept through to artwork and distribution that's in line with legal requirements. It should be noted that with the product objective established from the outset, it took over 12-18 months to get right. There continues to be no comparative product in the local market, and perhaps overseas, than the almond milk on offer. It's suitable for baristas and at home, where it's universal in its offering.
Buying into this business will save you the time, money and hassle in establishing your own unique product. You are essentially set up to hit the ground running with sales and higher growth opportunities.
The product was sold at a major supermarket between October 2022 to May 2024, with the company accepting the removal of their product given the low profitability of the sales due to the price, conditions and marketing spend that were initially agreed on.
As a result of being in this supermaket, the brand is nationally recognised, and loyal consumers who purchased at the major supermarket, as well as the word of mouth that continues to spread, has seen sales continue to grow month to month online since exiting the major supermarket. In the last 30 days, sales online have grown 30% from the previous 30 days, with much higher profitability than when sold at the major supermarket. This achievement is even greater when the owner hasn't invested in any marketing activity whatsoever since earlier this year, where digital marketing and boosted and sponsored social media posts were deployed.
The brand continues to be tagged in social media by consumers who have nothing but the strongest admiration for the product. The online reviews reaffirm the market's high satisfaction with the product.
With a business plan already in place, the owner has already developed an oat milk product and an unsweetened almond milk to supplement the current almond milk, in order to broaden the range and allow the brand to be a true player in the plant-based milk space.
History
Established in 2019 by the current owner and with trading commencing in 2022, this business has changed the game with an almond milk that is still unmatched in what it offers, which will be discussed with any willing buyer. The oat milk is also unnmatched in what it will also offer, with the plan to continue to change the game using existing R&D, relationships with suppliers, manufactuers and consultants, as well as guidance from the owner-occupier.
