Performance Overview

Business details

Are you ready to take over a growing, profitable business with a strong mission and loyal customer base? I am selling a well-established, eco-friendly candle company with a focus on sustainability.

 

Business Highlights

  • Established Brand: A reputable name in the eco-conscious market, known for high-quality and sustainable candles with hundreds of 5 star reviews.
  • Loyal Customer Base: A strong and engaged following on social media platforms (15K followers) and an expanding email list with repeat customers.
  • Revenue Growth: Steady sales growth with a high-profit margin (65-70%).
  • E-Commerce & Retail Ready: Fully functional e-commerce website with secure payment systems and streamlined shipping processes. Partnerships with 83 retail locations around the UK.
  • Ethical Production: All candles are made from 100% soy wax, appealing to the ever growing market of environmentally aware consumers.
  • Steamline Operation: Well-documented processes, supplier relationships, and a complete inventory ready for the next owner.

 

Proven Sales Channels

  • Retail Website (£10,000/year)
  • Wholesale (£11,000/year)
  • Exeter Christmas Market: Established relationship bringing in £27,000/year, with excellent potential for growth by expanding into other Christmas markets, adding an additional £25k-£30k per market.

 

Stock & Equipment Included

  • Fragrance Oils
  • Wax
  • Jars and Bottles
  • Canon Laser Printer & Ink
  • Candle Making Equipment
  • Finished Candles & Reed Diffusers
  • Gift Boxes.
  • Packaging/Shipping Boxes.

 

These figures are approximate and subject to change as new stock is made or sold.

 

Production Options

Currently, all candles are handmade in-house, however if desired, production can be outsourced. A trusted supplier has been secured who can manufacture candles to the same specifications. All fragrance oils can be sent directly to the supplier, ensuring a seamless continuation of product quality. This flexibility provides a turnkey solution, allowing the buyer to focus on business growth without needing to manage the production process personally if desired.

 

Why Buy? This is a rare opportunity to step into a profitable and established business with strong revenue streams, both online and in-person, as well as potential to expand further in the eco-friendly product space. The current owner is moving on to new ventures and is looking for a passionate buyer to continue the Earth Candle Co legacy.
