$2M Sales Package Store, Absentee, SDE Growing 3 Years in a row

East Atlanta!! Rare opportunity to acquire a high-volume, 100% absentee-owned package store in a growing East Metro Atlanta corridor — with the real estate available, including an income-producing retail tenant.

The current owner acquired the business in 2021 and has never worked the counter. A trained, tenured staff handles all day-to-day operations — buying, merchandising, cash management, and customer service — while the owner monitors remotely. The results speak for themselves: Seller's Discretionary Earnings have climbed three consecutive years, from a recast loss position at takeover to approximately $361,000 in 2025 (18% of revenue) on roughly $2.0M in annual sales.

Highlights:
Truly absentee — no owner labor in the business; 2025 payroll is 100% non-owner staff
SDE up 3 straight years: ~$249K (2023) → ~$310K (2024) → ~$361K (2025)
$342K in the first half of 2026 alone (~$684.5K annualized run rate)
Real estate included/available — freestanding C-2 zoned retail building (~9,000 SF) with an adjoining ~1,800 SF tenant paying $36,000/year in additional rental income
Established location with a loyal repeat customer base and limited nearby competition
Virtually zero marketing spend — advertising has run under $600/year, leaving obvious upside through digital marketing, delivery apps, loyalty programs, and expanded product mix
Clean books — federal tax returns support the numbers


This is an ideal acquisition for an investor seeking passive income with hard-asset backing, an owner-operator who wants to step in and immediately expand margins, or an E-2/EB-5 visa candidate needing a documented, staffed operation.

Package stores with real estate and verified absentee operations rarely come to market in metro Atlanta. Serious inquiries only.
