This is just like starting a business from scratch – when you don’t have too much of an idea of what your sales will be when you open the door.

Property Features and Assets:

Store hours are Monday – Friday 10:00 to 6:00, Saturday 9:00 to 4:00, and Sunday 10:00 to 2:00, a total of 51 hours.

The store is in a small, fairly new shopping plaza with 9 other stores. Plenty of parking Plaza’s lot. A thought…One of the reasons this business is priced as it is – is because if you buy, it will be like opening this business 12 years ago (when it first opened up with no sales history). Consequently, you should have some experience or at least want this kind of business. You aren’t paying for all the Goodwill that exists so it’s probably a good deal for someone who wants a Dollar store in this location. Speaking of location, the store is in a community with the right demographics for a low-priced Dollar Plus party store. See detail in the Executive Summary.
