A rare opportunity to acquire two established and profitable retail boutiques in highly desirable locations on Kauai.
Operating since 2007, these complementary stores have built a loyal following among local residents, repeat visitors, and travelers seeking quality merchandise that reflects Kauai’s active, relaxed, and stylish lifestyle. The boutiques offer a thoughtfully curated assortment of apparel, footwear, jewelry, accessories, children’s clothing, and island essentials for everything from hiking and beach days to casual and dressier occasions.
The two stores are strategically located in prominent retail centers. Together, they provide excellent exposure to two of Kauai’s most sought-after visitor destinations, while also benefiting from an established local customer base.
Customers appreciate the boutiques’ wide selection, personalized service, and ability to provide a convenient, one-stop shopping experience. The stores are further distinguished by warm, island-inspired interiors and custom live-edge shelving handcrafted from locally sourced Cook pine.
The businesses are offered together as a turnkey acquisition, providing a new owner with established operations, trained employees, valuable vendor relationships, recognizable market presence, and nearly two decades of operating history.
The current owner is preparing for retirement and is willing to provide training and transition support to help ensure a smooth transfer of ownership.

About the Business
- Years in Operation
- 19
- Employees
- 5 (2 Full-time, 3 Part-time)
- Facilities & Assets
- The businesses operate from two leased retail locations on Kauaʻi’s.
Both stores feature inviting, island-inspired interiors designed to showcase merchandise effectively and create a memorable shopping experience. Distinctive improvements include custom live-edge shelving handcrafted from locally sourced Cook pine and durable rolling inventory-storage systems.
The leases, assignment requirements, renewal options, occupancy costs, and other material terms will be provided to qualified buyers during the confidential review process. The transaction will be subject to obtaining acceptable lease arrangements for both locations. - Market Outlook / Competition
- The boutiques have differentiated themselves through their longevity, personalized customer service, distinctive merchandise mix, and ability to serve a broad range of footwear, apparel, and accessory needs.
Customers regularly comment on the variety and quality of the merchandise, and the businesses benefit from repeat visitors who return during subsequent trips to Kauai. The stores’ established supplier relationships, curated product selection, recognizable local presence, and desirable locations provide advantages that would take time and substantial investment for a new competitor to replicate. - Opportunities for Growth
- The businesses have been built primarily through their physical retail presence, reputation, and repeat customer relationships. A new owner could pursue several opportunities for growth, including:
• Developing or expanding e-commerce
• Increasing social-media activity and targeted digital advertising
• Building an email and customer-loyalty program
• Coordinating promotions and customer referrals between the two stores
• Developing relationships with resorts, vacation-rental managers, concierges, and visitor-oriented businesses
• Offering local delivery, shipping, or online ordering for repeat customers
• Expanding high-margin or exclusive product categories
• Using customer and sales data to refine purchasing and inventory allocation between locations
These initiatives could allow a new owner to build upon the stores’ established foundation without changing the qualities that have made the businesses successful.
