BUSINESS FOR SALE

This is a great opportunity to own your own business that is well established in an expanding market with great potential.


This business has been trading for 18 years. Prior to that the same type of business was established about 40 years ago. The business/location has since built up a very good reputation and became very well known as the sports store that it is today.


The store prides itself by selling only the best equipment for value for money for the customer, plus the customer service of the store is what brings customers back.


Being an independent Camping store you have the advantage of not being tied to any particular brand and as a result can offer our customers a larger spectrum of products that buying groups or chain stores cannot offer. The business purchases on a regular basis from a large supplier base.


We have taken the opportunity to expand the business byway of the internet. Our new website is active but the website store is still a work in progress. This web site www.yassvalleyoutdoors.com.au will be part of the business being offered including the 2 email addresses and domain. (info@yassvalleyoutdoors.com.au & admin@yassvalleyoutdoors.com.au)


We have a growing Customer list that could benefit from loyalty discounts, monthly specials and advanced viewing of new products and catalogues.


This is a golden opportunity for a couple or a partnership to run their own business in a camping & leisure industry that is still expanding and a business that is well and truly established. With the expansion into the web this is one business that can only go on to bigger things.


The business has many valued customers who have come to rely on us over the last 18 years. It is still a very viable business with opportunities to take the business forward.
