WebsiteClosers® presents an SBA Pre-Qualified, 11-year Subscription eCommerce and Wholesale business offering authentic specimens, unusual scientific materials, educational products, collectibles, optical tools, and, science-focused gifts to a global audience. The company was built to serve customers who want more than ordinary science merchandise. Their catalog combines carefully sourced third-party goods with proprietary products developed, packaged, and assembled in-house, giving the business a clear place within the science, education, collecting, and gifting markets.
This is an SBA pre-qualified business! This means a qualified buyer can purchase it with as little as 10% down on the Qualifying Loan Value and spread the remainder over a 10-year period.
More than 1,500 products are currently offered across Paleontology, Geology, Chemistry, Physics, Astronomy, Biology, and Natural History. The catalog includes repeatable bestsellers alongside rare, one-of-a-kind items that add depth to the shopping experience. Their long-running science subscription has shipped more than 60,000 boxes worldwide and draws from 100 months of developed themes, educational materials, and product ideas. The company also holds an exclusive worldwide license for an unreleased product line created with a recognized figure in the science field, with several years remaining on the agreement.
The business has built approximately 54,000 customer accounts, including 19,000 email subscribers, and 38.2% of orders during the last 12 months came from repeat buyers. Email remains a proven sales channel, producing more than $48,000 in attributed sales against roughly $2,100 in platform costs, equal to about 23x attributed revenue relative to cost. The brand also has approximately 21,000 social followers and maintains a 4.9 customer rating across more than 5,000 reviews.
The company has served approximately 525 wholesale customers over time, with about 200 placing orders during the last 12 months. Buyers include museums, science centers, zoos, aquariums, gift shops, educational retailers, and specialty stores. The average order value is approximately $72, while wholesale orders average about $315. This gives the company a path to grow order value without adding the same volume of small individual shipments.
Daily fulfillment and customer support are handled by one full-time employee and one part-time employee. The team ships roughly 20 orders per day, in addition to a monthly subscription batch of about 300 boxes. Orders, inventory, subscriptions, email campaigns, reviews, and marketplace connections are managed through common eCommerce software. No special scientific license or technical background is required from a buyer, and supplier knowledge, assembly steps, and product-selection methods can be transferred during training.
Growth opportunities include carrying deeper inventory for proven wholesale items, reactivating past accounts, attending trade shows, adding direct wholesale ordering, and expanding into more museums and specialty retailers. A buyer could also extend the proprietary blind-bag range, improve the subscription experience, launch gift and educational subscription plans, and bring the licensed product line to market through crowdfunding and creator partnerships. Paid advertising offers another tested route, as past Google Shopping campaigns returned approximately 3x to 5x ROAS, while other shopping campaigns produced approximately 2.9x to 6x ROAS. Amazon, short-form educational content, affiliate partnerships, live commerce, and a structured SEO plan remain lightly developed.
This acquisition includes an established catalog, proprietary product concepts, recurring subscription activity, supplier relationships, a trained fulfillment team, a large customer database, and a growing wholesale account base.
