This business is an established, highly profitable direct-to-consumer US online discount store and general merchandise retailer operating online since 2011. The business offers an expansive, multi-category catalog of over 16,000 product listings across high-demand home, garden, kitchen, and lifestyle departments.
By operating a streamlined, asset-light dropship model with direct US suppliers, the business eliminates inventory holding risk and warehouse overhead. Customers pay upfront at checkout before supplier invoices are settled, generating an advantageous working-capital cycle that self-funds growth while producing $1.42M in TTM revenue and $160.8K in TTM net profit. With an outstanding 71.5% TTM gross margin, an automated returns system, and an established Google acquisition engine generating $3.37 in revenue per ad dollar, this business represents a turnkey, managed digital asset with massive room for expansion.
Continued Business Operations: For investors or hands-off buyers seeking a turnkey asset, up to 90 days of dedicated transition support is included to ensure a smooth system, supplier, and operational handover. It is entirely up to you as a buyer whether you retain support post-acquisition or prefer taking over day-to-day operations yourself.
