Highly Profitable Outdoor Adventure Businesses Portfolio
Business Description
This highly profitable outdoor adventure portfolio represents a rare opportunity to acquire three established operating locations in Southeast's highly regulated recreational waterway market. With $1.4M in annual revenue and $695K in cash flow, this business demonstrates strong financial performance with significant growth potential.
Key Financial Highlights:

- Cash Flow (SDE): $695,000
- EBITDA: $780,000
- Asking Price: $3,400,000
- Real estate valued at $2,000,000 included

New competitors cannot simply purchase equipment and begin operations - they must obtain difficult-to-acquire permits, significantly limiting market competition.
Growth Potential:
Current infrastructure and equipment can support 75-100% revenue growth without major capital investment. The business is positioned to double through enhanced marketing, increased utilization, group sales expansion, and additional lodging/camping development on owned land.
Operational Structure:
Each location operates with experienced, long-term management in place, requiring minimal day-to-day owner involvement. This established operational framework allows new ownership to step into a fully functioning business.
Industry Outlook:
The global whitewater rafting market is projected to grow at 10.80% CAGR, reaching $3.78 billion by 2034, indicating strong sector fundamentals.
Transaction Details:
- Seller financing available
- Owner will provide coaching support for 1-2 years
