Absentee Owner - SunMed Modern Wellness Franchise with Prime Location

Venice, Sarasota County, FL, US

This well-established Sunmed – Modern Wellness Store presents a unique opportunity to acquire a fully turnkey business in the rapidly growing CBD and natural wellness industry. As part of the nation’s largest brick-and-mortar CBD franchise, the store is professionally branded and fully equipped, offering a diverse selection of premium hemp-derived products including oils, tinctures, edibles, skincare, and pet products—all third-party lab tested to ensure quality and compliance. The business has developed a strong reputation within the community, attracting a loyal and health-conscious customer base through knowledgeable service and a welcoming retail environment. The space itself is modern, clean, and thoughtfully designed, with all fixtures, inventory, and a fully integrated POS system included in the sale. A key advantage of this opportunity is its existing operational structure, which supports a largely absentee ownership model. The current owner is not involved in the day-to-day operations of the business, instead relying on a trained and capable staff to manage daily sales, customer service, and routine store functions. This makes the business especially appealing to investors or owners seeking a semi-absentee or fully absentee role, while still maintaining the option to be more hands-on if desired. The franchise system further supports this model by providing ongoing operational guidance, marketing resources, and established processes that streamline management responsibilities. No prior experience in CBD or retail is required. Comprehensive onboarding and training will be provided by both the franchisor and the current owner to ensure a smooth and successful transition. Additionally, the seller has agreed to cover the franchise transfer fee—an added value of up to $20,000 included in the purchase price. The business is well-positioned for continued growth as consumer demand for natural wellness solutions continues to rise nationwide. The sale also includes exclusive territory rights, offering protection and long-term value in an increasingly competitive marketplace. This is an excellent opportunity to step into a reputable, system-supported business with minimal owner involvement required. Financials are available upon request for qualified buyers. Don’t miss your chance to enter a booming industry with a trusted and recognized national brand.

Rare Antique Maps & Prints Inventory Asset Sale

Palm Beach County, FL, US

Rare opportunity to acquire a highly curated inventory of antique maps, rare prints, select reprints, giclée works, and historical pieces dating from the 16th through 19th centuries. This is an inventory and asset sale only, offered as a non-operating business. The buyer is acquiring the collection, related support assets, and the included website, not an active operating business with current revenue or cash flow. The collection consists of 290+ pieces assembled over decades by a longtime dealer with a refined eye for rare historical works. The seller sourced and authenticated inventory through extensive travel, careful acquisition, and years of direct involvement in the antique maps and rare prints market. The seller previously operated a gallery in Colorado before relocating the gallery and inventory to Florida for retirement. The inventory includes extremely rare and unique antique maps, historical prints, decorative works, select reprints, and giclée pieces with strong visual, historical, and collector appeal. Many pieces would be extraordinarily difficult, and in some cases impossible, to replace in today’s market. The collection has appeal across multiple buyer groups, including antique map dealers, fine art and antiques collectors, rare print dealers, gallery owners, online sellers, designers, auction-oriented buyers, and entrepreneurs interested in starting or expanding an antique maps and prints business. This offering may be especially attractive to an existing antique dealer, art dealer, gallery, or online retailer seeking to add distinctive historical inventory without spending years sourcing individual pieces. It may also appeal to a private collector of fine art and antiques with elegant, historically refined taste who appreciates the beauty, rarity, and significance of curated historical works. Included in the sale are the inventory, selected supporting assets used for storage, display, handling, and presentation, and the included website. Supporting assets include 40 frames with acid-free matting and French ink lines, adding presentation value for gallery display, collector placement, resale, or online merchandising. Together, these components provide a buyer with a meaningful platform for relaunch, private sales, online merchandising, or future expansion within a niche category centered on rare and highly desirable historical works. Potential paths for growth include relaunching the included website, building an online sales channel, marketing through antique and art dealer networks, selling through collector channels, attending specialty shows, pursuing auction relationships, presenting pieces to galleries, and targeting interior designers, hospitality groups, and luxury commercial spaces seeking unique historical statement pieces. This should be evaluated as a specialized asset acquisition, not as a traditional cash-flowing business. No financial statements are being provided because the sale is based on inventory and related assets only. A buyer with industry knowledge, collector relationships, online marketing ability, or gallery/dealer experience may find meaningful upside in repositioning and monetizing the collection. Asking Price: $86,000 Established: 1998 Business Status: Non-Operating Business Sale Type: Inventory / Asset Sale Only Website Included: Yes

What to know about retail business acquisitions

GW

By George Wellmer

Cofounder & CEO

Key diligence, valuation, financing, and transition considerations for buyers evaluating retail business acquisitions.

Read the lease before anything else

Remaining term, renewal options, rent escalations, and assignment rights can make or break a retail deal. A great store with a weak or non-transferable lease is a problem you inherit.

Value the inventory carefully

Establish what inventory is included, how it is valued, and how much is dead or seasonal stock. Inventory is often a large and negotiable part of the price.

Verify sales and margins at the register

Reconcile point-of-sale data against bank deposits and tax returns. Understand gross margin by category and how discounting affects it.

Assess foot traffic and the trade area

Location quality, nearby anchors, and parking drive walk-in revenue. Visit at different times and check that the trade area still supports the business.

Map supplier terms and concentration

Exclusive brands, supplier credit, and minimum order sizes affect both margin and risk. Make sure those relationships transfer to a new owner.

Clarify owner and staff roles

Owner-run stores often lean on the owner relationships and hours. Understand staffing, turnover, and what it costs to operate without the seller.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common buyer questions for this market.

Yes, you can use a SBA loan to buy a retail business. Inventory and steady cash flow help, and qualification depends on clean financials, verifiable returns, and a seller who meets program requirements on the business side.
