Retail store for sale! A long-established top-500 franchise retail store in West Dallas is now available for acquisition! This thriving children's clothing store is well-established and boasts consistent and growing sales. It was founded by the current owner in 2004 and has since weathered the challenges of the COVID pandemic, experiencing even more growth in recent years.
The store offers a range of mostly used child products, including children's clothing, toddler clothes, baby clothes, maternity wear, toys, baby accessories, and strollers. Located in an affluent area of West Dallas, the store occupies a spacious 4,500 sq. ft. space within a retail strip center. Its prime location benefits from high visibility and easy access; it is surrounded by newly developed neighborhoods and close to a major highway.
The customer base is a mixed demographic but mostly consists of local mothers, expectant mothers, and family members with children. Remarkably, there are no direct competitors in the immediate vicinity, giving this store a competitive advantage. Sales have consistently shown an upward trend, with current profitability at $125,000 per year and a 30% cost of sales.
Minimal marketing is in place, but the established brand name, visible location, strong word-of-mouth, and social media presence help consistently attract new customers to the store. The franchisor conducts marketing on a national level and offers franchisees the opportunity to contribute. Participating in the national co-op marketing campaign would help raise awareness and attract more customers to this regional location. This resource is currently not being utilized by the owner but can be considered.
There are ample growth opportunities for this business. The local area's booming population and ongoing development offer great potential for organic growth. A new owner could explore ways to enhance the inventory with new products that can be readily promoted and sold along with the used products. Lastly, a more hands-on approach from an owner-operator is recommended to maximize potential. The business is run by an absentee owner who oversees back-office paperwork and monthly staff meetings while a manager handles day-to-day operations. Transitioning to a more involved owner-operator can increase sales and cash flow.
This exceptional opportunity is ideal for a qualified buyer looking to acquire a well-established, thriving retail operation with significant growth potential.
