EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
A-1 Tractor & Mower is an established outdoor power equipment sales and service dealership located in Melbourne, Florida. The business has been serving Brevard County's residential and commercial landscaping community since 1980 and represents a compelling acquisition opportunity for an active owner-operator looking to grow market share in the thriving Florida outdoor equipment market.
THE OPPORTUNITY
A-1 of Melbourne represents a rare opportunity to acquire a 44-year-old outdoor power equipment dealership with established relationships, a loyal customer base, and valuable commercial real estate in one of Florida's fastest-growing counties.
The business holds authorized dealer status with two of the most respected names in outdoor power equipment: STIHL (the #1 selling brand of gasoline-powered handheld outdoor power equipment in America, according to STIHL) and Hustler Turf Equipment (a leading commercial and residential zero-turn mower manufacturer since 1964). These dealership relationships are exclusive by territory and not easily obtained — STIHL products are only available through authorized dealers (not big box stores), creating a protected market position.
The current owners took over the business from their father when he retired. They have operated the dealership as a family business for decades, building deep relationships with both commercial landscapers and residential customers throughout Brevard County. Since 2020, the owners have semi-retired — reducing store hours, scaling back marketing, and operating at a maintenance level.
