BizHarmony Perspective:

This profitable operation will appeal to one of two types of investors / buyers, depending on their corporate objectives.

With a strong regional presence, operating 7 retail outlets and a distribution center in a highly fragmented industry, this company could either be the 'growth platform' for further national expansion, or become an acquisition for a strategic buyer that has already embarked on an expansion plan of their own. Either way this opportunity has a strong management team that would like to become part of the growth and stay on, with a deferred exit strategy, and they are open to an LBO structure.

The real estate can be included or excluded as the current Management Team is very flexible.

This Wholesale and Retail company offers custom picture framing, framed art, framed mirrors and a myriad of other framing ideas to the general public as well as interior designers, photographers, artists, galleries, commercial designers and other frame shops. They have established a strong reputation for excellent customer service as well as being an enjoyable and pleasant to work in their local markets. Founded in a garage 17 years ago as a family business, this company has grown to multiple locations and a fully stocked warehouse. Their success has stemmed from their attitude of fully understanding what the customer wants and then delivering the products, with a smile, on time, at the lowest possible price and of the highest possible quality.

This philosophy is the corporate culture and permeates the entire operation and will continue through all phases of expansion.

The designers are truly consultants that build relationships with their customers and although the marketing budget includes radio, television and print media, the 'word of mouth' is still what keeps this company competitive. The designers are constantly learning the latest in trends and styles to stay one or two steps ahead of the competition.

The customer base spans all walks of life that excludes no one, from the once in a lifetime customer to a complete interior design project.

Once a customer visits the store, they always come back as evidenced by the numerous testimonials.

This well run and profitable operation is poised for expansion and the current management is looking for an investor / buyer with the same philosophy.
