This is a 22-year-old business built from scratch by the current owner into a 300,000 dollar plus grossing business. This manufacturing company makes hand made jewelry, bubble wands, and ornaments. The business has done as much as 500,000 dollars a year in revenues in past years. The momentum of the business has been rebuilding over the past 2 years. The novelty of this business is in its model. All production is done by contract workers in their homes. Kits are sold with a guarantee of repurchase at a set price. Turnaround time for work in process is from a few days to 2 weeks. By doing this, the company keeps its COGS to less than 25% for production. The current owner has spent the better part of her life positioning this company in most of the major gift and retail shows including the New York International Gift Fair and Buyers Market of American Craft, which both have a 5 year approval process. Buyers from retail shops around the country know and respect this company for quality of product, and more importantly, customer service after orders are fulfilled. Currently the company has inside phone reps taking inbound calls and orders as well as outside manufacturer reps who market through gift and retail shows around the country. One of the major assets and customers of the company is the outstanding Whole Foods Markets. With their recent acquisition of Wild Oats, this company is now approved in almost 60% more stores than it was just a few months ago. They have just been accepted to the Holiday gift show for Whole Foods as a preferred vendor to showcase for buyers from all over the country. Included as well are several catalogue customers that purchase and resell the companies products. This one is going to sell very quickly and has tremendous upside.
