About the Business
Located in a premium big box retail centre with exceptional foot traffic, Living on the Outside has carved out an enviable position as the go-to destination for outdoor living solutions. This business has been helping customers transform their outdoor spaces with premium furniture, state-of-the-art BBQs, elegant shade umbrellas ranging from intimate to grand scale, and a carefully curated selection of outdoor accessories.
Imagine stepping into a business that has already done the hard work for you. No franchise fees carving 6-8% off your top line every year, no trial-and-error phase wondering if customers will come, building supplier relationships or product quality. Living on the Outside represents that rare gem in the business marketplace: a fully established, profitable independent retailer with nearly two decades of proven success, now available due solely to the current owners' well-earned retirement plans.
Living on the Outside enjoys an extraordinary 38% return customer and referral rate. That’s more than one in three sales coming from customers who are so satisfied with their previous experience that they either return themselves or recommend the business to friends and family. These customers already trust the brand, know the quality they're getting, and require far less convincing than cold prospects.
Compelling reasons to this great business opportunity:
• Well established (19 years)
• Big box location – Domain Central
• Not a franchise
• Innovative product offering
• Exclusive and unique brands instore
• Reputation for high-quality products
• Deal directly with the manufacturer
• Great margins on imported products
• Offers value for money
• Loyal customer base
• Excellent marketing / advertising already in place
• Accountant’s figures
• Great business model
• Easily run
• Trades 7 days
• New lease up for negotiation
• Offer of 3 months tuition
For a low entry cost plus stock on hand, you'll be acquiring a fully stocked operation ready to trade from the moment you take over. For a new owner, this eliminates one of the biggest challenges and cash flow pressures of taking over a retail business. You can focus on building relationships and growing sales rather than scrambling to fill empty showroom space or worrying about stock levels in those critical first months.
