The opportunity presents a long standing and highly well-respected brand that holds significant presence in its market. The business specialises in the sale of yard dyed alpaca costs and has an established and highly efficient international supply chain.
The model imports the raw material yarn from Peru, that is then dyed in Scotland and then knitted and finished in England. The products have received outstanding PR over the decades of trading history that has propelled the business to be a market leader for alpaca wool socks. The product range is an optimum size and provides 7 core products to its target market. These are available in 20 different colours to suit Women, Men and Children respectively.
The business utilises a slick ‘Shopify’ website that has benefitted from regular investment by the owner operator who wishes to sell the business to facilitate retirement. There is significant scope to develop new product lines for the brand, whilst maintaining the profitable model that has been established.
