Inc. 5000 Pet Empire w/ Distribution & Franchise Moat - $1.1M+ EBITDA
DescriptionTired of chasing trends? Here's your chance to own a business that sets them.
This isn't just another pet business for sale. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a vertically-integrated, multi-million-dollar Pet Empire that has cracked the code in the recession-proof, high-growth pet wellness market.
Recognized on the Inc. 5000 list for its explosive growth, this confidential powerhouse operates a brilliant, three-pillar strategy that generates massive revenue and creates an unbreakable competitive moat.
THE THREE PILLARS OF THE EMPIRE:
1. The Financial Engine: Wholesale & Distribution Dominance
This is the strategic core of the entire operation. Our B2B distribution arm isn't just a side business; it's a high-margin powerhouse with exclusive rights to premier brands in New York. This masterstroke of strategy means local competitors have only one choice: become our customers. We control the supply, turning the competition into a predictable, high-margin revenue stream.
2. The Growth Machine: A Turnkey National Franchise System
Why build one store when you can build an army? Our proven, capital-efficient franchise model is a well-oiled machine for rapid, low-risk national expansion. With four thriving locations already validating the concept, the blueprint for coast-to-coast domination is already in your hands.
3. The Brand Embassies: High-Margin Corporate Retail
Our profitable flagship stores are more than just retail locations; they are high-traffic showrooms for our brand's cult-like following. They drive direct-to-consumer sales, reinforce our premium market position, and serve as the testing ground for new products and strategies.
This is a unique opportunity for a strategic buyer or private equity group to acquire a category-defining leader with a clear, de-risked path to becoming a national household name.
