This business offers everything any northern California customer could possibly want related to fireplaces - mantels and hoods, inserts, wood stoves, outdoor barbeques and fire pits, gas logs and burners, surrounds, doors and screens, accessories, etc.

In business for a decade, this store is the ''go to'' place for the discerning fireplace devotee … whether they're a homeowner, contractor, or real estate developer. They are designers, fabricators, installers, and general contractors; but, the business has been planned and developed so that a new owner with no technical expertise or prior industry experience can step right in and grow the business even more. They are authorized re-sellers for over twenty fireplace brands.

A successor would infuse the company with new energy, enhanced marketing exposure, an expanded territory, outside sales, and possibly complementary lifestyle product offerings such as spas, saunas, outdoor patio structures, and water features.

The business is an excellent acquisition target for (1) a contractor already in the industry, (2) a retailer already in the industry, (3) an individual with entrepreneurial zeal, (4) a hands-on owner operator looking for a turn-key successful business, or (5) an absentee or semi-absentee investor who will hire operating management.

The owners report annual sales of approximately $2,100,000 with Seller's Discretionary Earnings (''SDE'') of over $400,000. The business is definitely SBA loan eligible. Complete historic financials will be made available to serious bona fide buyers only after a preliminary discussion with the broker and owner.
