Spice Brand: 7X Amazon Growth, $0 Ad Spend; Wholesale Untapped
Business Description
We've proven demand. You have the infrastructure to monetize it.
Spice Without Borders is a registered, turnkey specialty food brand built on 4 proprietary global spice blends, Indian Tikka Masala, Thai Green Curry, Moroccan Ras El Hanout, and Japanese Gold Curry. All products are vegan, gluten-free, sugar-free, soy-free, nut-free, preservative-free, and non-GMO. Each pack includes a shopping list and cooking directions on the back, with 100+ additional recipes on our website. Shelf stable with an 18-month shelf life, the products are ideal for both e-commerce and retail distribution.
Founded in 2018 and operating in earnest since 2020, the brand generated ~$150K in gross revenue from 2022 to 2025 across Amazon, Shopify DTC, wholesale, and farmers markets, with a peak year exceeding $75K in 2021. Growth has been driven primarily by organic demand and word of mouth, with minimal paid advertising. Amazon revenue has grown 7X since 2022 with $0 in paid advertising on the platform. Current Amazon run rate is $2K+/month. Gross margin is 50.7%.
Core ops are stabilized at ~$18K/year with a near-breakeven 2025. The business is pre-profitability; 2025 net loss was ~$7,600 on $29K revenue. Path to profitability is short with any meaningful revenue growth.
The brand was conceived and built from the ground up by the founders, who bring professional expertise in brand strategy and design, the visual identity, packaging, and positioning are polished, cohesive, and consumer-tested.
The ideal buyer already has sales and marketing infrastructure in place, the foundational work is complete with brand, supply chain, customers, and operations ready to hand off.
The founders are not interested in continuing to operate the business, but are open to ongoing paid consulting for brand and product development.

- Market Outlook / Competition
- The premium global spice segment is growing, driven by demand for international flavors and clean-label convenience products. Spice Without Borders is differentiated by its all-in-one format (shopping list and directions on every pack), allergen-free positioning, and authentic multicultural range. A 12 to 20% repeat purchase rate on Amazon and DTC, driven by organic demand and zero Amazon advertising spend, validates product-market fit. No direct competitor combines this format, clean label, and global flavor range at this price point.
- Opportunities for Growth
- Five clear levers: (1) Activate Amazon Sponsored Products: projected 3 to 4X revenue lift. (2) Expand farmers market presence, high-margin, cash-positive, drives online awareness. (3) Replicate Cheese Importers wholesale model in new regions; expand into mass grocery. (4) Launch new SKUs, Thai Red Curry and Chinese 7-Spice in development; cookbook opportunity from 100+ existing recipes. (5) Scale volume to reduce COGS from $2.03 toward ~$1.40/pack, pushing DTC margins above 80%.
