Bedford County, Tennessee
Established Dry Cleaning & Alterations Business | Bedford County
Call/Email
The only dry cleaning business in Bedford County offering alteration services — a competitive advantage that has kept customers coming back for over 50 years. With three distinct revenue streams (dry cleaning, wash and fold, and alterations), this turnkey operation generates over $103,000 in annual revenue with a long-tenured staff already in place and ready to support a new owner from day one. The business benefits from consistent year-round demand, with peak volume driven by the area's active horse show and equestrian community alongside strong holiday seasons. A new owner steps into an established customer base, proven operations, and a market position that no local competitor can match. The seller is committed to training the new owner at no cost and has structured the deal to make entry accessible — with seller financing available and $91,000 in assets included in the asking price (FF&E, leasehold improvements, and inventory). This is a rare opportunity to acquire a recession-resilient, community-rooted business with real barriers to competition and immediate cash flow from day one. $109,000 | Bedford County, TN | Seller Financing Available This business has operated with minimal marketing — currently limited to a single social media platform — leaving significant untapped potential for a new owner to grow revenue without adding overhead. Immediate opportunities include expanding the digital presence through a dedicated website, Google Business profile, and targeted local advertising to capture customers actively searching for dry cleaning and alteration services in the area. A simple customer loyalty or referral program could further strengthen retention among the existing base. On the service side, the alterations offering — already a local differentiator — could be promoted more aggressively to drive higher-margin revenue. Adding pickup and delivery service is a low-cost enhancement that has proven effective for dry cleaners in similar markets and could open an entirely new customer segment. The business is also well-positioned to capitalize on continued growth in the local horse show and equestrian community, a built-in niche that drives repeat, seasonal volume. Targeted outreach to stables, equestrian clubs, and event organizers could meaningfully increase that revenue stream. Finally, with a month-to-month lease a new owner has the flexibility to secure the location long-term and invest in the facility with confidence. https://tworld.com/locations/Tennessee/murfreesboro/listings/Established-Dry-Cleaning-Alterations-Business-Bedford-County

Davidson County, Tennessee
Established Nashville Boutique with In-House Alterations
$ 277,000
For 28 years, this Nashville-area boutique has built a loyal following as a destination for prom, bridal, and special-occasion dresses — and it's one of the only shops in the region offering professional alterations in-house. That combination creates two income streams: seasonal dress sales and steady, year-round alteration work, including from customers who bought their dresses elsewhere. The business carries approximately $400,000 in branded designer inventory at cost, and the $277,000 asking price means a buyer acquires that inventory at a meaningful discount before even accounting for the brand, vendor relationships, or equipment included in the sale. The owners are retiring after nearly two decades at the helm and are offering full transition support, including personal introductions to longstanding vendor relationships and a guided trip to the Atlanta apparel market to help the new owner select the next season's inventory. Out-of-state customers regularly travel in from Kentucky and Alabama due to limited competition in those markets — entirely through organic word-of-mouth and search visibility, with no advertising spend to date. This is a turnkey opportunity for a buyer with retail, fashion, or alteration experience looking for an established customer base and immediate cash flow from day one. The current owners intentionally slowed inventory purchasing ahead of retirement, which has reduced recent revenue — but it also means a new owner has a clean opportunity to restock for the 2027 prom season with vendor relationships already in place. Alteration demand currently exceeds capacity, leaving room to grow that revenue line by adding alteration staff or capacity. The business has never advertised, so there's a clear opening to grow the out-of-state customer base through even modest digital marketing. https://tworld.com/locations/Tennessee/nashville-metro/listings/Established-Nashville-Boutique-with-In-House-Alterations

Established Alterations & Tailoring Business Loyal Client Base
Call/Email
Well-established alterations and tailoring business with a loyal and long-standing customer base. The business is currently operated by the owner alone, creating a unique opportunity for growth. Strong repeat business and word-of-mouth referrals continue to generate consistent demand, with customers often booking alterations weeks or even months in advance. To ensure a smooth transition, the current owner is willing to assist during the ownership transfer period and personally introduce the new owner to her loyal clientele. This hands-on transition support will help maintain customer relationships, preserve goodwill, and ensure business continuity from day one. Services include wedding dress alterations, suit tailoring, leather repairs, uniform alterations, dress and skirt adjustments, jeans and denim alterations, outerwear modifications, and custom clothing fitting. The location offers space to add additional tailors or seamstresses, allowing a new owner to increase capacity, reduce wait times, and significantly grow revenue and profitability. https://tworld.com/locations/Florida/fortlauderdale/listings/Established-Alterations-Tailoring-Business-Loyal-Client-Base
