Popular Lifestyle Headwear Brand For Sale
Business Description
We are a creative, U.S.-based hat company specializing in a diverse range of hand-crafted headwear styles. Our core markets include outdoor families and individuals, retailers across the U.S., and organizations in the active lifestyle, food, and nonprofit sectors. Since our founding 13 years ago, we have focused on brand-building, reliable U.S. manufacturing, and developing strong multi-channel sales—including e-commerce, wholesale, direct fair and festival sales, and custom orders. This business offers a unique blend of flexible income streams and can be run from virtually anywhere.
Our process begins with original design development, followed by sourcing high-quality raw materials in small batches. Production is handled by two experienced West Coast-based manufacturers. Finished hats are then sold through our Shopify web shop, Etsy store, direct-to-customer events, and wholesale or custom-branded orders. We have a loyal customer base with a strong 35% return rate and brand recognition from customers who have taken our hats with them across the globe.
Through integrated email marketing and long-standing relationships with retailers and businesses, we’ve built a steady and engaged following. Fans seek us out at festivals and street fairs, while our online subscribers regularly return to shop.
With updated marketing strategies and streamlined operations, this business has the potential to become a semi-passive source of income for a buyer interested in creativity and lifestyle branding. It can also remain a profitable, part-time side business as-is. With no outstanding debt and a strong foundation, this is ready for a smooth transition. A full business profile is available upon request.
