Positioned in the heart of Lorneone of the Great Ocean Road's most tightly held and highly visited coastal destinationsthis long-established hardware and leisure business offers a rare combination of strong local demand and lucrative seasonal trade. Serving a loyal mix of residents, tradies and holidaymakers, the business enjoys a dominant market position with no direct competition within a one-hour radius and is the only fishing gear supplier in town.
Operating for over 100 years and under current ownership since 2020, the business is exceptionally well-equipped with over $400,000 in stock across top-selling categories, two warehouses, a spacious three-level retail footprint, and a fleet including two trucks and a near-new ute for deliveries and gas services.
The recently upgraded SYMPAC system seamlessly manages POS, inventory and payroll, ensuring efficient day-to-day operations. With multiple revenue streams including retail, trade supply, gas bottle refills, special orders and delivery, the business is both diverse and resilient. Its strategic location in a high-traffic tourist townparticularly during the peak Christmas to Easter periodprovides strong turnover and ongoing growth potential.
The current owner, now 66, is ready to retire after years of hands-on operation, presenting an outstanding opportunity for an owner-operator, investor or lifestyle buyer to secure a blue-chip coastal business with scale, infrastructure and a proven track record.
