Industry-Leading Flooring Franchise in Prime Chicago Areas
Business Description
This is a rare opportunity to acquire an industry-leading flooring franchise positioned in some of the most desirable and highest-income ZIP codes in Chicago. The business is fully built, professionally branded, and ready for rapid scale under the next owner.
The current owner has completed the heavy lift—establishing systems, relationships, assets, and brand presence—and is shifting focus to real estate development and property management, creating a clean handoff opportunity.
Prime Territory & Market Position
- Exclusive franchise territory covering six high-value North Side Chicago ZIP codes
- Dense residential, condo, apartment, and light commercial market
- Strong demand driven by renovations, aging housing stock, and real estate turnover
- Ideal mix of high-margin residential and repeat commercial/property work
Strong Foundation with Significant Upside
While still early-stage financially, the business has established assets that typically take years to build, including:
- Over 55 Google reviews with a strong local reputation
- Active, well-developed social media presence
- Excellent local SEO and LLM-optimized digital footprint
- Established relationships with builders, developers, apartment and condo managers, general contractors, retail chain partners, and financial institutions
- Strong referral pipelines including professional networks
This is a growth-focused acquisition with a clear runway, not a turnaround.
Turnkey Assets Included
- Fully branded flooring showroom van
- Walkie Stacker Forklift
- Extensive flooring samples and displays
- Organized warehouse with racking and equipment
- Transferable lease in a central, highly desirable neighborhood
- Vendor relationships and national franchise support systems
The buyer avoids startup risk and can operate immediately.
Scalable Operations
- Proven sales and in-home consultation process
- Established vendor and installation relationships
- Franchise systems, training, and national marketing support
- Clear opportunities to increase consultations, expand property manager and HOA programs, scale commercial and builder relationships, and add dedicated sales focus
With the right operator, this territory supports rapid revenue acceleration and strong long-term profitability.
Ideal Buyer
- Owner-operator with sales or operations experience
- Flooring, construction, or real estate professional
- Builder or GC seeking vertical integration
- Strategic franchise buyer expanding market presence
Reason for Sale
Owner is shifting focus to property development and property management and stepping away from day-to-day operational ownership. This is a strategic transition, not a distressed sale.
Serious inquiries only.
Confidentiality required. Additional information available upon request.

- Market Outlook / Competition
- Flooring operates in a nearly recession-resistant industry, driven by a mix of “needs” (damage, repairs, and pre- or post-move replacements) and “wants” (aesthetic upgrades and renovations). Competition includes big-box retailers and independent installers, creating a fragmented market with opportunity for a professional, service-driven operator.

The territory supports increased in-home consultations, repeat property work, and commercial volume with focused sales execution.
