Business Description
This 76 year old family-owned and operated retail furniture store is a high regarded, well-established member of the local community in this Eastern Virginia town. This town is a retail hub for a significant part of rural Tidewater, VA. The second and third generation owners are seeking to sell the business after the passing of the 2nd generation Owner/President. The Company has many local and nearby customers who have purchased furniture from this Company over many years. Besides selling and delivering the furniture, the Company provides financing for many of the furniture sales. Financing is generally provided for 3 to 36 months. The Company's financing accounts receivable are included in the sale price. The family has built a strong reputation of fair business dealing, integrity, honesty, and caring for the members of the community. Many of the family members will continue to live in the community after the sale, so they want to ensure that the purchaser continues to run the business in a manner which demonstrates a similar culture and care for their customers. The store has thrived despite the arrival of big box retailers and online retail because of its important niche of installment credit for middle and low income families needing to furnish their homes with furniture and appliances. The Company's strong local reputation and excellent physical location in this Eastern Virginia town will be a very good benefit for the buyer to assume the ownership and leadership of this operating business.

Market Outlook / Competition
The retail furniture business is highly competitive with several big box and local furniture store competitors. The key area where this Company has a competitive advantage is their strong community reputation combined with excellent customer service and reasonable financing terms to their clientele who may not otherwise have access to large amounts of credit availability. By having the long term relationships with their customers and understanding the community extremely well, the owners have carved out a very attractive business model over many years.
Opportunities for Growth
The new owner of this business would have access to significant upside opportunity through modernization of the commercial real estate facility, improvement and upgrade in inventory control and tracking, improvement in marketing and online advertising, and expansion of the geographic and local customer base.
