Skills

Employees
Currently owner-operated with outsourced accounting and professional services.

Reason for Sale

This creates an opportunity for a new owner to acquire an established children's retail and e-commerce business with its core assets, systems and established customer database already in place.
About the Business
This opportunity offers considerably more than the purchase of inventory or a retail lease.
Over several years the business has developed an established retail and e-commerce platform including supplier relationships, customer database, Shopify e-commerce, operating systems, merchandising infrastructure and a recognised independent retail presence. The business has been built to allow a purchaser to focus on growth rather than spending years establishing the underlying infrastructure.
The business specialises in carefully selected toys, games, puzzles, children's gifts, creative activities and outdoor products for families seeking quality products and personalised service.
Included in the sale are:
• Established trading business
• Recognised brand and goodwill
• Shopify e-commerce site
• Established customer database
• Supplier relationships
• Operating systems
• Shop fittings and fixtures
• Stock at value (SAV)
• Transition support
The business provides immediate trading capability together with clear opportunities for further development by an experienced operator.
Potential areas for future growth include:
• E-commerce optimisation
• Customer acquisition and retention
• Children's gifting
• Gift registry services
• Curated gift services
• Local marketing
• Expanded product categories
• Corporate and workplace gifting
This opportunity is expected to appeal to experienced retailers, e-commerce operators, existing business owners seeking expansion or commercially capable owner-operators.
Expressions of Interest are invited from genuine purchasers.
History

Continued investment in systems, supplier relationships, e-commerce capability and customer experience has created the operating platform now available for acquisition.
