Our turn key Bait, Tackle and Archery business is once again on the market, For Sale..
This well established business has served the Vermilion/Lorain fishing and hunting population for the last 17years and has a large and growing customer base.
The business is fully stocked, equipped and the sale includes all inventory and equipment required for immediate success.
This sale is for the bait, tackle and archery business only and not the prime location which is leased from great property owners who are very flexible and easy to work with. The building has lots of additional space available for business expansion.
Our shrink wrap business is also available and can be negotiated as a package deal.
Owner and staff may be willing to stay on as long as needed for a smooth transition.
