Warehousing, Distribution and Fulfillment Company; For Sale

Posted on by Matt Wochele

The company was established in 2015 as a logistics and e-commerce business. Today their primary function is providing warehousing, distribution and fulfillment for the tabletop game industry.

The company’s growth from $2.8M in 2021 to $7.6M in 2024 came primarily from their fulfillment business. This segment offers the highest margins and the strongest growth potential. However, they have maintained an e-commerce business run by one of the owners which generated about $2.2M of the 2024 revenue. A new owner can decide if they want to keep that portion of the business. The net margin on the e-commerce business is about 10% which equates to a little over $200,000 of the $1,500,000 seller’s discretionary earnings (SDE) for 2024.

They operate out of a 22,000 SF facility in Smyrna GA and have a second warehouse in Forest Park GA where they can utilize up to 50,000 SF if needed. The company currently runs with 15 employees plus 3 owners. One owner is located in Ireland and runs the e-commerce side. The other owner is a fulltime operator working out of the Smyrna facility. The third owner is a nonworking owner.

The customer count is in excess of 140 clients. They enjoy a stellar reputation which brings tabletop game publishers to them from around the world.

Ownership believes their nonpermanent status hinders their ability to raise funding necessary to take the company to another level. Consequently, the owners have decided to sell and focus on their other businesses.

Asking Price: $4,400,000.

B2b sign manufacturer For Sale, Under Contract

Posted on by Matt Wochele

Business Overview

This is a business to business and business to local government sign designer and manufacturer. Established in 2002, the business they have established is based largely on repeat clients and referrals.

The company is run by a husband and wife team. The husband spends most of his day running the CNC Router. The wife is in the design and client liaison side of the business. You will see in the seller’s discretionary earnings (SDE) calculations that we have subtracted out $50,000 from the owner’s salary so a new owner can hire a CNC Router. There are five other employees, (See Org Chart).

Revenue has been consistent over the past five years. You will notice a spike in sales for 2022 yet the SDE is consistent with 2023. Ownership has noted that certain types of jobs while creating more revenue have thinner margins. There was an influx of this work from an existing client in 2022 causing a jump in revenue yet barely affecting profitability. Over the past three years the average SDE was around $400,000.

It is the opinion of ownership that their client base is extremely loyal. They have not had to spend much money on marketing including social media. Their customer base consists of local county parks departments, general contractors, universities, and a variety of commercial clients. About 60% of their work is for exterior signage and 40% for interior.

Manufacturing and offices are out of the 5300 SF building owned by the sellers. They anticipate keeping the building and leasing it back to the new owners. The rent will be comparable to the rent they pay themselves already reflected on the books.

The owners are ready to retire. However, they will be available for a transition period for up to one year. They are anxious to share their knowledge with a new owner. It is their belief that this market is healthy and scalable and that a new owner coming in will have solid footing and a platform to grow the business.
