Established Dog Grooming Salon – Absentee-Owned – Western Palm Beach County
This dog grooming salon has operated for decades and has a large, loyal client base in an affluent, pet-friendly community. The current owner bought it in 2022 and has since invested in improvements to the facility and operations. The business runs on its staff of three experienced groomers, one bather, and a receptionist, and the owner handles only payroll.
The salon offers full grooms, breed-specific specialty cuts by head groomers, and bath and maintenance packages. It also has a full menu of add-ons, including deshedding, deep conditioning, facials, flea treatments, medicated and specialty shampoos, and teeth brushing. A membership and loyalty rewards program keeps clients coming back. The salon uses cruelty-free, USA-made products and modern bathing and drying equipment. Clients book through an online scheduling platform, and the business has an active social media presence.
In 2023 the salon collected about $301K in revenue, averaging roughly $25K per month. That came from about 3,160 tickets and 3,600 pets serviced, with an average ticket of around $95. Revenue stayed steady month to month with no major seasonal swings.
The salon is open Tuesday through Saturday only. A buyer could grow it by adding Monday hours, hiring another groomer, expanding memberships and add-on sales, or adding retail. It's a good fit for an investor who wants a semi-absentee business with recurring revenue, or for an owner-operator who wants to increase margins by working in the business.
