Wholesale Distribution For Sale in QLD

​A rare opportunity to acquire a dominant, long-established wholesale and distribution business operating at the core of the Australian ladies' fashion supply chain. Established in 1988, this business has traded continuously for nearly four decades and is regarded as a main industry supplier to both online and brick-and-mortar retailers across Australia.

The operation services a database of 400+ active customers, including independent boutiques, chains and online sellers, delivering highly diversified revenue and strong repeat ordering. The business is fully systemised and operates under management, making it particularly attractive to overseas investors, visa buyers and hands-off owners seeking scale, stability and proven earnings.

Key highlights include a 38-year operating history with deep supplier, designer and customer relationships; a wholesale and distribution model that is not dependent on retail foot traffic; a full-time experienced manager in place; owner involvement of approximately 10 hours per week focused on supplier and designer relationships; and a secure long-term lease renewed recently, running to 2028 with a further option.

The business demonstrates strong and consistent trading performance, supported by high customer demand and efficient operations.

Based on available financial records, the business reports annual revenue of approximately $4 million, with a net profit of around $470,000 (stated on compliance financial report) after accounting for rent, staffing (including full-time management), cost of goods, and general operating expenses.

The business is operated with a disciplined cost structure, including a secure lease with rent at approximately $2,000 per week (inclusive of outgoings), and a streamlined staffing model.

There are also additional income components inherent in the day-to-day operations of the business which are not fully reflected in the formal financial statements. These will be explained in detail and substantiated during buyer due diligence and owner discussions.

Overall, this is a highly cash-generative business with strong underlying fundamentals and clear upside for an incoming owner.

The business holds substantial tangible assets, including stock on hand valued approximately $1.0 million. Staffing comprises one full-time manager (13 years on the job) on $120,000 per annum plus super, supported by casual staff for approximately 10 hours per week. Established supplier networks, designer relationships and operating systems ensure immediate continuity of trade and cashflow from day one.

This opportunity is ideally suited to overseas buyers seeking Australian business visa pathways, investors seeking strong and consistent cashflow at scale, wholesale or distribution groups looking to expand market share, or buyers seeking a proven under-management operation with significant upside. Growth opportunities include expansion into international B2B markets, private-label and exclusive designer ranges, increased penetration of online wholesale platforms and strategic overseas partnerships.

This is a rare acquisition of a main Australian wholesale and distribution platform with nearly four decades of trading history, exceptional profitability, experienced management and significant tangible assets. Confidential enquiries only.
