*2025 financials will be available by mid-April, we encourage interested buyers to engage now to ensure they’re included once the updated numbers are released.* This multi-location specialty retail chain has operated for well over a decade and serves a broad U.S. region. The stores focus on social expression products, including cards, gifts, and presentation items, and many locations also provide in-store shipping services. The customer base is wide and diversified, typical of consumer retail, with sales primarily at point of sale. Operations follow a multi-rooftop model with centralized back office, purchasing, logistics, and warehouse support. District management oversees store execution. Ownership currently leads strategy, finance, administration, logistics, facilities, buying, merchandising, store operations, and marketing. Standard seven-day retail hours apply. Inventory is material and turns within a few months. Accounts receivable are minimal given the retail mix, and accounts payable follow standard terms. Revenue is weighted toward merchandise, with a meaningful share from shipping services. Category mix includes cards, gift items, and presentation products. Product is sourced from a major national program and a broad set of allied vendors, reducing supply risk. The business has integrated acquired stores over time and built organizational depth to support scale. Customer concentration is low due to a largely retail base. Growth can come from unified commerce, meaning tighter integration of online and in-store systems to sell any product from any location, plus stronger category management to improve margins and turns. Additional upside includes expanding shipping services and carriers across more stores, using locations as fulfillment nodes to leverage assets, targeted marketing to drive traffic, and continued consolidation of independent shops. The sellers are flexible on transition and can support both tactical handoff and a longer strategic role under the right structure. The business is not fully absentee; it benefits from experienced executive leadership to guide merchandising, operations, and unified commerce initiatives. 📍 Mesa, AZ 💰 Asking Price: $14,400,000 📊 Revenue: — 💵 SDE: N/A SBA Eligibility: SBA Eligible 🤝 Seller Financing: Yes 🏷️ Industry: N/A View the full listing on Baton: https://www.batonmarket.com/market/businesses-for-sale/mesa--az/4b69fb4c-36d3-4471-8ecb-429fcf8aeb0d?utm_source=searchfunder&utm_medium=listing&utm_campaign=searchfunder_deal
