Acquire a specialist online tropical plant nursery generating $268,823 in annual revenue and $27,866 in reported profit, with a catalog of more than 180 unique plant species and an asking price of $93,500.

This niche ecommerce business specializes in rare tropical and ornamental plants, including sought-after Anthurium, Monstera, and Philodendron varieties. Backed by more than 12 years of plant production experience and three years of online trading, the business serves collectors and enthusiasts seeking distinctive plants that can be difficult to find through conventional nurseries.

Operating through a streamlined supply chain, plants are sourced and shipped directly from a production base in Ecuador to customers in the United States. The business has developed an extensive catalog of more than 180 unique species, many of which are exclusive to its online offering. Approximately 70% of sales are generated by its 20 best-selling products, providing an established core range alongside opportunities to promote less-exposed varieties.

Amazon is the primary sales channel, with orders handled through a fulfilled-by-merchant model. The business also has seller accounts on Walmart and eBay, together with its own website, creating opportunities to develop additional sales channels beyond Amazon.

The team costs approximately $1,200 per month, providing operational support across the business's core activities.

With a growing catalog and established plant sourcing arrangements, the business offers several avenues for expansion. A new owner could focus on developing Walmart, eBay, and direct website sales, optimizing product listings, and increasing advertising to attract additional collectors and plant enthusiasts.

The specialist nature of the product range is another key attraction. While traditional plant retail has been slower to adopt ecommerce, this business has developed an online offering centered on rare and collectible varieties, supported by direct access to plant production.

The asking price is $93,500, with approximately $27,000 in inventory available separately. The sale includes the business domain, social media assets, supplier relationships, and existing marketplace seller accounts.

This opportunity is particularly suited to a plant enthusiast, horticultural business owner, or ecommerce operator seeking an established online nursery with a distinctive product range and opportunities for multichannel growth.
