This high-caliber store is located in an equally recognized shopping village known for exceptional specialty stores, dining opportunities, recreation and professional services.

Facilities: This anchor tenant, situated on one of the busiest commuter highways in the county attracts patrons from affluent areas noted for exquisite homes and refined taste. Studies track 30,000 cars daily at this intersection. Conveniently located in the heart of Benton County--one of the fastest growing parts of the country and home to corporate giants like Wal-Mart and Tyson Foods. An annual lease provides approximately 2,400 sqft.-- including two open-arched showrooms, floral design studio, office, storage, and bathrooms.

Competition: This prime location is surrounded by affluent communities heavily influenced by corporate lifestyles. There are no similar stores to be found due to the unique mix, attention to design, and ambiance. Exclusive lines insulate this store from competition. The owner often receives request from out-of-town/state customers to expand this shopping concept into their communities (i.e. Little Rock, Dallas, and metropolitan areas of California).

Growth/Expansion: Income from repeat customers is an indication for continued growth. Invitation to an annual open house is distributed for guests to be treated with hors d oeuvres, exclusive-line gift previews, special pricing and abundant goodwill. Development of a secure website supported by the cooperative advertising dollars would tap into expanding internet commerce. Bridal and gift registries, along with fresh floral arrangements would be a natural addition to services offered. Increased sales may follow increased owner's presence.

Support/Training: Seller will provide two weeks of training at no cost.

Reason Selling: Retirement with possible relocation.
