Established in 2022, the company is seeing rapid growth, with turnover hitting £1.7m over the last 12 months. Sales are predominantly achieved through the company’s own website, which is operated through the Shopify platform (£1.1m). Other sales channels include Amazon, Etsy and various dropshippers.

There is huge potential for this company to grow further, through corporate and B2B sales, along with further investment in the Amazon platform.

The company operates in a 6,000 sq ft split level warehouse, with an Operations Manger, E-commerce Executive and 4 other member of staff. Seasonally, staff levels can grow to 25 members to fulfil orders. The business operates 24/7 and staff currently operate Monday-Friday 8am-4pm. The business can run by itself and can be relocated.

The company is being sold because the current owners are moving abroad and want to pursue other interests there.

Competition / Market:

Competition online has stabilised since the pandemic boom, with only larger retailers remaining in the field.
