$179K SDE | 26-Year Custom Apparel Business | 75% Repeat Clients
Business Description
**BizBuySell Title:**
**$179K Bank-Verified SDE | 26-Year Custom Apparel Business | 75% Repeat**
A rare opportunity to acquire a **26-year-established custom apparel decoration business** serving Florida’s Gulf Coast with recurring contract revenue, an experienced production team, specialized commercial equipment, and significant untapped growth potential.
The business generated **$623,449 in revenue and $160,043 in SDE in 2025**. More importantly, over the trailing twelve months through July 31, 2026, the business produced **$179,048 in bank-verified Seller’s Discretionary Earnings** on approximately **$589,859 in receipts**.
Those earnings were rebuilt transaction by transaction from the company’s bank and credit-card statements — and were generated during a period when the owner had already stepped away from day-to-day operations.
The business is offered at **$450,000 — approximately 2.51× bank-verified TTM SDE.**
### A Proven Business That Kept Performing Through an Owner Transition
The owner is selling for health-related reasons and has been unable to continue operating the business. During the transition, a tenured key employee has taken responsibility for day-to-day production while the owner’s spouse has provided limited part-time support.
Despite operating without a full-time owner and without a dedicated salesperson, the company still generated approximately **$179,000 in TTM SDE**.
For a new owner, that creates an attractive starting point: the customers, employees, equipment, supplier relationships, systems, and production capabilities are already in place.
### Why This Business Stands Out
• **$179,048 Bank-Verified TTM SDE** — through July 31, 2026
• **$450,000 Asking Price** — approximately 2.51× TTM SDE
• **$623,449 2025 Revenue** — up 19.9% from 2023
• **26 Years in Business** — continuously operating since 2000
• **75% Repeat & Recurring Work** — relationship-driven customer base
• **~50% Contract Revenue** — recurring work from regional printers and commercial accounts
• **No Single-Customer Dependence** — revenue spread across contract and local business accounts
• **Experienced Four-Person Production Team** already in place
• **Key Employee Managing Daily Production** during the current owner transition
• **High-End Equipment Included**, including two newer commercial embroidery machines placed in service in 2023 and 2024
• **In-House Production** across embroidery, screen printing, digitizing, artwork/design, and heat press
• **98% Google Customer Rating** built without paid advertising
• **No Dedicated Salesperson or Outbound Sales Program** — leaving significant growth potential
### Fully Equipped, In-House Production Platform
The company provides embroidery, screen printing, digitizing, heat press application, artwork and design, online/catalog ordering, and local delivery.
Unlike competitors that outsource portions of production, the company performs its core decoration services in-house.
The sale includes commercial embroidery and screen-printing equipment, production and office systems, inventory and supplies, supplier relationships, customer history, contract relationships, and the goodwill built over more than two decades.
Recurring Customers Drive the Business
Approximately **75% of orders come from repeat and recurring customers**, with roughly **50% of revenue generated through recurring contract accounts**.
The remaining revenue comes from a diversified base of local businesses, tourism and event customers, schools, churches, teams, and other commercial clients.
The company has built this customer base primarily through **reputation, referrals, and word of mouth** rather than paid customer acquisition.
This is not a turnaround opportunity. It is an established, profitable production business with **26 years of operating history, recurring customers, trained employees, specialized equipment, and a clear path for an engaged owner to grow from an already-profitable base.**

About the Business
- Years in Operation
- 26
- Opportunities for Growth
- Significant Growth Still Untapped
Perhaps the biggest opportunity is what the current owners have **not** done.
The business has never employed a dedicated salesperson, built a meaningful outbound sales program, or invested in paid advertising.
A growth-oriented buyer could pursue several immediate opportunities:
• Hire a dedicated salesperson targeting local businesses, schools, churches, athletic teams, and regional commercial accounts
• Expand existing contract-printing relationships and pursue additional B2B accounts
• Launch local SEO, digital advertising, social media, and structured review-generation campaigns
• Capture additional embroidery demand as a dedicated local embroidery competitor exits the market
• Leverage the existing equipment and production capacity to grow revenue without rebuilding the operation from scratc
About the Sale
- Seller Motivation
- Major health issues
- Transition Support
- Smooth Transition
The seller will provide structured transition support and warm introductions to key contract customers. Because production is already handled by an experienced lead employee and trained team, operational continuity does not depend entirely on the current owner.
