Sold. Hunting Ecommerce Business With 10 Years Of History

For sale is an eCommerce business in the hunting niche with 10 years of history. This is the 'Sports and Outdoors' market. This industry is served by many large companies (Cabela's, Bass Pro, Walmart) plus thousands of small gun shops. This eCommerce site has carved out a specific niche successfully for the past 10 years.

Their main niche within the hunting market is serving customers outside the US which is underserved by their competitors. Historically non-US sales has accounted for about 65% of sales. Currently it is about 55% of sales. The business is not a dropship business, however, inventory is typically not ordered until a firm web sale has been received and therefore cash turnover is high. This physical products business can be run from anywhere. At the current sales level, one person needs to spend about 30 hours per week at most on running the business.

The brand name is the most valuable asset. The business also comes with over 20,000 customer emails that have not utilized yet for email campaigns.

Expansion Potential
There is a lot of room for growth within the US. International sales can also be expanded. Products can also be sold on Amazon. Someone good at social media and other forms of advertising would increase sales. They have never done an email campaign to the existing customers which could also increase sales.

Overall this is a great opportunity for the right new owner to acquire an eCommerce business with 10 years of history that still has simple ways it can be grown. It would greatly benefit from a new owner that is able to do more marketing and traffic generation.

Market / Competition / Non-Competition Agreements
The hunting market is huge and this particular niche sees little to no effect from gun control proposals.
