Summary
A rare opportunity to acquire a well-established independent bookstore with a loyal local following, built over more than a decade in the Northern Territory.

• A curated range, including strong local-interest titles and a large games selection for all ages, that national chains and online retailers don’t match
• An experienced store manager and team who already run the business independently in the owner’s is absence
• A strong community profile, with regular author events and a large social media following
• The owner will provide a handover to support the transition of customer, supplier and institutional relationships
Ideal Buyer
A passionate owner-operator, investor or strategic acquirer looking for an established, manager-run bookstore with clear room to grow through active marketing, online sales, new product lines and expanded trade accounts. An owner-operator could also reduce staffing costs and lift profitability further.
