Lighting & ceiling fan wholesaler to residential builders
Business Description
Step into ownership of Florida's premier lighting and ceiling fan wholesale operation and immediately benefit from four decades of established market dominance. You'll gain instant access to a thriving customer base of residential builders and remodeling contractors who generate impressive sales volumes through an already-proven business model.
Your investment delivers immediate cash flow through multiple revenue streams: a fully stocked $750,000 inventory that turns three times annually, established accounts receivable exceeding $250,000, and relationships with all major lighting and ceiling fan manufacturers. This means you'll start generating returns from day one without the typical startup struggles of building supplier relationships or establishing credibility.
The business operates with remarkable autonomy, featuring a seasoned professional design-sales team, in-house fixture repair department, and installation crew. This turnkey operation means you can focus on strategic growth rather than daily management challenges. Your customers will be consistently impressed by the extensive showroom displaying hundreds of fixture samples across thousands of square feet, creating natural upselling opportunities.
You'll benefit from owning a recession-resistant business serving the essential residential construction market. The comprehensive design library and consultation services position you as the go-to expert, commanding premium pricing and fostering customer loyalty. The established repair and installation services create additional profit centers beyond wholesale distribution.
Financial flexibility comes through available SBA financing for inventory and the option to purchase the recently appraised $1.7 million facility, providing both operational control and real estate appreciation potential. The current lease arrangement reflects market rates, ensuring transparent operating costs.
This acquisition eliminates the years typically required to build supplier relationships, develop market presence, and establish operational systems. You're purchasing proven profitability, established market share, and a foundation for expansion in Florida's growing construction market.
