Recession-Resistant Amazon Store: Essential Produc

Business Overview:

This turn-key Amazon store has been meticulously developed to focus on in-demand, year-round essentials—ranging from personal care items (Dove soap, Old Spice, Axe) to household cleaning products (Oxi-Clean, Arm & Hammer). Thanks to the recession-resistant nature of these items, sales are predictable and continue to thrive regardless of season or economic climate.

Since early 2021, the owner has automated and refined the operations with Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and a fully-trained team, creating a truly hands-off opportunity.

In 2024, this store generated $654,983 in revenue with a profit of $105,258. The business comes with $25,000 worth of inventory included in the $182,000 asking price, presenting exceptional value and immediate opportunity for a new owner.

Key Highlights

1.) Product Portfolio: Recession-proof, evergreen items ensure predictable sales year-round.
2.) Minimal Time Commitment: The owner spends roughly an hour per month reviewing performance and placing inventory orders every few months.
3.) Growth Potential: A pre-negotiated product catalog of up to 125 items is ready to be leveraged if you have additional working capital.
4.) Streamlined Operations: Suppliers handle shipping and logistics directly to Amazon’s warehouses, minimizing overhead and complexity.
5.) No Need for a Warehouse: Virtually all operations are handled by the supplier and two remote employees, dramatically reducing overhead costs.
6.) Easy Transition: SOPs, training, and experienced employees make this an ideal investment—even if you have no prior e-commerce experience.

Reason for selling: The current owner is shifting focus to a new project that requires significant capital. Although profitable and simple to operate, this business no longer aligns with their long-term plans, providing a great opportunity for the next owner to step in and reap the rewards.

Property Features and Assets:

1.) Virtual Business Model: No physical storefront or warehouse needed.

2.) Supplier Relationships: Established partnerships that handle shipping and Amazon prep.

3.) Streamlined Team: Two well-trained employees manage daily operations and coordinate with any 3PL when necessary. (Home Based)

Market Competition and Expansion:

1.) Catalog Expansion: You can unlock up to 125 pre-approved products, each with negotiated supplier rates.

2.) Scale Easily: With additional working capital, expand inventory levels and product offerings to significantly boost sales and profits.

3.) Rapid ROI: Owners with sufficient capital often recoup their investment within 12 months, thanks to the strong demand and favorable supplier agreements.
