Purple Holly is an established business selling home and garden gifts and accessories online and via a gift shop. We source from a variety of leading UK and European brands, including Wrendale Designs, Portmeirion, Dartington Crystal, Orla Kiely, Fallen Fruits, Stolze Lausitz, and Villeroy & Boch.

Offered in the sale are the stock, social media platforms, marketing database, and established e-commerce platform. We sell via the Purple Holly website and third-party platforms, including Amazon and eBay, through Purple Holly and Lets Buy Gifts. In addition, all warehouse and office furniture could be included in the sale.
We operate from a 2,000-square-foot (including mezzanine) warehouse based in Lincoln, UK.

This is a leasehold arrangement that could be transferred if required. Purple Holly is currently managed and operated by between 2 and 3 employees and has been in existence for over 13 years.

Over the years, we have grown our business, and our turnover growth from 2022–23 to 2023–24 increased by over 16%. We are forecasting similar growth figures in the coming financial year. This was achieved in part with investment in a new e-commerce platform and improved market analysis software.
