Opportunity Summary

Headline

Neighborhood Drug / Sundry Store OC Beach Location

Summary

This establishment has been a neighborhood drug store / pharmacy, and beach sundry and souvenir store since 1956!  The business is located in a prominent main street location in the center of a popular beach city, a few hundred yards in from the ocean.  2003 revenues were $380,000, however, many opportunities exist for a new owner to further increase revenues.  At present, the store sells prescription and over the counter pharmacy products, souvenirs (T-shirts, sweatshirts, sandals, towels, etc.), cards, cosmetics, games / toys, and miscellaneous convenience store style candy, food and household products. 

Facilities / Assets

The business is in a 3,500 square foot facility.  Rent is currently at $4,650 per month, however, it may increase to as high as $7,000 / mo (i.e. $2 psf).  Profitability figures suggest the historical rent (i.e. $78k, with a working owner).  Approximately $76,000 in inventory ($11k pharmacy and $65k retail) is included in the sale, as well as at least $50,000 in furniture, fixtures, equipment and shelving, counters, and retail build out.  This number may, however, be significantly higher. 

Competition

With the exception of small local convenience stores offering sundry items, there is no major competition within walking distance (i.e. no other pharmacies). 

Growth Potential

The current owner does not have a retail background and has not engaged in any advertising since commencing ownership in 2002; an opportunity may exist for an experienced marketer to significantly increase revenues. 

Other

Facility rent will not be finalized until an offer is on the table, therefore, the profitability of this business may vary.
