Reason for Sale
After four rewarding years of running Once Upon a Teepee, I’m now preparing to pass the torch. I originally purchased the business to help support my son's school fees, and with him now entering his final year, I’m ready to reclaim my weekends. This business has brought me immense joy and pride, and while I’ll miss it dearly, I’m excited for someone new to take it forward and continue creating magical experiences.

History
The business has experianced growth and transformation over the past four years. When I acquired the business, it operated with just 8 teepees and a modest social media presence of 50 Facebook followers. Through consistent effort and a passion for creating memorable experiences, I’ve grown the business to include:
22 unique sleepover themes and styles,
A thriving schedule of 3–4 setups per week,
Each sleepover theme also translates seamlessly into picnic setups.
Strong market demand, creative flexibility, and scalable potential.
