Description
Rare opportunity to acquire an established Code Ninjas — the world's largest kids coding franchise (300+ centers) — serving one of Chicagoland's most affluent, education-obsessed western suburban markets in DuPage County.
This is a turnkey center with approximately $428,000 invested: a brand-new 2025 build-out ($150K), $252K of equipment, and protected franchise territory rights. The center relocated in May 2025 to a right-sized 1,600 sq ft space at just $3,800/month NNN — cutting occupancy costs roughly in half and setting up a lean go-forward cost structure. Building a comparable new Code Ninjas runs $177K–$385K per the franchisor's FDD, plus 18–24 months of ramp with zero students and zero revenue.
The center generated $300,844 of revenue and approximately $113K of seller's discretionary earnings in 2024, demonstrating what the location can do at full enrollment. Trailing-twelve-month revenue is $190K with roughly break-even earnings following the relocation year — a clear recovery play for a hands-on owner-operator willing to rebuild core enrollment on a proven platform.
Revenue is anchored by recurring coding memberships plus a strong ~$44K/year summer and day-camp business, supported by durable community relationships, including:
*A multi-year partnership with a leading local park district (camps, day camps and clubs)
*A high-school internship program with a top-rated public school district's career office
*STEM mini-course programs across the district's elementary schools
These channels provide enrollment pipeline, local credibility, and B2B program revenue that a new build could not replicate.
The sale includes all FF&E, the 2025 leasehold build-out, and franchise rights. The franchisor provides comprehensive training and onboarding for new owners; the seller will provide 20 business days of transition training. Seller financing is available for a qualified buyer. Ideal for a first-time owner-operator, an existing children's-education franchisee adding a territory, or an education-minded entrepreneur.
Confidential details — including exact location, financial statements, and partner agreements — are available upon signing an NDA and buyer qualification.

Vocational School in West Texas - Executive Ownership!
$ 1,500,000
This SBA pre-qualified vocational school offers executive ownership, scalability, and an established reputation in one of the larger cities in West Texas! This business helps people improve their lives by giving them a vocation as a barber, and it has a stellar reputation amongst its former students and the greater community. Moreover, the owner has built the curriculum and staff infrastructure over the years so that she doesn't teach a single class--and because of that, a new owner would be able to assume an executive role in the business, which offers the flexibility to scale the business or add it on to your existing operations/portfolio. NOTE: BUSINESS LOCATION WILL BE MADE AVAILABLE UPON SIGNING AN NDA. BUYER NEEDS TO HAVE AT LEAST $150,000 IN LIQUID ASSETS (i.e., CASH) IN ORDER TO BUY THIS BUSINESS. Broker to review your financial ability to buy prior to sending you the CIM. Other Info: The school offers 33-week long training programs for students who want to become a cosmetology operator or a Class A Barber (more details available upon completing an NDA). Currently the owner wishes to retire and hand the business off to someone who will grow it and build on what she already has in place--which is a well-oiled machine that can be scaled to additional locations/markets. This business can be expanded at its current location or it can easily be expanded into new cities/ markets using the infrastructure that is already in place. In fact, it used to have a satellite location in Austin several years ago, but the current owner scaled back to reduce her workload. That said, expansion to new locations could be accomplished without adding much more to the owner's workload if a new owner scales in a way that preserves their role as an executive. https://tworld.com/locations/Texas/southandwesttexas/listings/Vocational-School-in-West-Texas-Executive-Ownership-

Profitable Virtual CORP Events, Gifting, Scalable, GWTH RDY
$ 1,300,000
*This business does not qualify for SBA financing. The Seller will provide financing of up to $800,000, at 8%, with a 10-year amortization and a 5-year balloon payoff.* The Company provides a full range of white-glove, personalized virtual events, which include an extensive network of culinary experts and connections. Event offerings include internal team building, external client relationships, and corporate gifting programs. The business operates with minimal owner involvement, leveraging a streamlined, automated system that allows it to run efficiently with just 1-3 hours of owner oversight per week for most of the year, increasing to roughly 40 hours weekly during the holiday season of October through mid-December. Additional part-time hours are added during the holiday season as well. Unlike most event businesses, it is not tied to a single region—it serves corporate clients across the U.S. and internationally. This broad market reach and a 100% US based supply chain (greatly limiting tariff exposure) makes it highly scalable and resilient, with no geographic limitations on growth. The Company has never invested in paid advertising or digital marketing, relying solely on word of mouth and a small cold outreach campaign—leaving massive growth potential untapped. A new owner can immediately unlock substantial revenue expansion through simple marketing strategies like paid search, SEO, email marketing, LinkedIn advertising, PPC campaigns, and more. Additionally, with strong demand from existing customers, corporate gifting expansion and in-person event offerings present additional ready-to-execute opportunities for growth. Client prepayments and deposits for upcoming events provide ample operating capital. With strong cash flow, an established client base, minimal hands-on involvement, and significant untapped marketing potential, this is an ideal acquisition for an investor or entrepreneur looking to scale a proven, in-demand business. https://tworld.com/locations/New-York/ny/listings/Profitable-Virtual-CORP-Events-Gifting-Scalable-GWTH-RDY--
