Business Description
Imagine owning a piece of maritime history that's been quietly generating profits for 67 years. This isn't just another marine supply business - it's your chance to step into a legacy that connects you with yacht clubs, shipping companies, and boaters worldwide.
What makes this special? You'll inherit something truly rare - exclusive International Admiralty Chart Agent status. Think of it as having a protected territory in the $2+ billion marine industry. Your customers can't just go anywhere else for what you offer.
Here's what you'll love about this opportunity:
You're not starting from scratch. The relationships are already built. Major shipping companies know this name. Yacht clubs trust this brand. You'll walk into 67 years of goodwill that money can't buy.
The revenue streams are beautifully diversified. Charts, navigation equipment, safety supplies - you're serving everyone from weekend sailors to commercial fleets. When one area slows down, others keep you steady.
Your location in the Mid-Atlantic puts you right where the action is. Commercial ports, recreational marinas, and everything in between flows through your market area.
Worried about learning the ropes? The current owner will teach you everything - supplier relationships, regulatory requirements, operational secrets. You'll have a dedicated team already trained and ready to support your success.
The business comes with something precious in today's market - barriers to entry. ISO 9001 certification, exclusive supplier agreements, and regulatory compliance create a moat around your profits that competitors can't easily cross.
You'll appreciate how recession-resistant this industry is. Maritime safety isn't optional - it's required by law. Your customers need what you sell, regardless of economic conditions.
The best part? This runs without you being chained to the desk. The systems work, the staff knows their jobs, and you can focus on growth opportunities rather than daily firefighting.
SBA financing is available, making your path to ownership smoother. The lease terms protect your investment, and there's even an option to purchase the real estate for long-term appreciation.
This is your chance to become the go-to maritime authority in your region while enjoying steady cash flow from day one.
