Description
This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced driving school owner/operator looking to expand in the Los Angeles market, or for a qualified licensed driving instructor ready to step into ownership of an established platform with history, infrastructure, vehicles, instructors, and brand recognition already in place.
Founded in 1980, this respected driving school has served generations of students and families throughout the Los Angeles area. The business offers teen, adult, senior, corporate, and specialized driving instruction services and has built a strong reputation for professionalism, safety, and quality instruction.
Business Highlights:
- Established driving school with decades of operating history
- Premium Los Angeles area market
- Longstanding reputation and recognizable name
- Multiple service lines including teen, adult, senior, and corporate driving programs
- 7 instructors plus office support staff
- Fleet of 10 owned vehicles included in the sale
- Seller training and transition support available
- Strong opportunity for growth through expanded marketing, online booking, referral programs, fleet utilization, instructor hiring, and geographic expansion
SBA 7(a) financing pre-qualification available for a qualified buyer, subject to lender approval
Ideal Buyer Profile:
This business is especially well-suited for:
- An existing driving school operator seeking expansion
- A licensed driving instructor ready to own and operate their own business
- An experienced education, transportation, or service-business operator
- A hands-on buyer with sufficient down payment, operating capability, and commitment to continuing the company’s legacy
SBA Financing Opportunity:
The business has received SBA 7(a) loan pre-qualification consideration for a qualified buyer. Preliminary financing terms indicate the possibility of acquisition financing with an estimated 10-year fully amortizing structure and no prepayment penalty, subject to full lender underwriting, diligence, credit approval, buyer qualifications, licensing, documentation, and final commitment.
A qualified buyer will need to demonstrate appropriate financial strength, liquidity, operating capability, U.S. citizenship status, and licensing eligibility. Additional working capital may be included in the financing if supported by cash flow and lender approval.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out:
Many buyers look for a business with a proven brand, operating history, trained staff, vehicles, systems, and market presence. This opportunity offers an established foundation with room for a motivated owner/operator to modernize, expand, and continue growing the business.
For the right buyer, this is not a start-up. It is a platform acquisition with history, infrastructure, and financing support potentially available.
Serious Inquiries Only
Confidential information will be released only after completion of NDA and buyer qualification. Buyers should be prepared to provide background, proof of funds/down payment capability, and relevant operating or licensing experience.

Supplement Brand Business w/ $1.75M Rev, 33% Growth & $312K SDE
$ 1,500,000
The Company is an established developer and marketer of branded dietary supplements and premium wellness products serving U.S. and Asian markets from a Southern California base. Through owned formulas, registered trademarks, U.S. contract manufacturing relationships, and a multi-channel sales model spanning direct-to-consumer e-commerce, domestic wholesale, international distribution, and private-label programs, the Company delivers roughly 50 active SKUs under two distinct brands without owning production assets. Key Investment Highlights: Consistent profitability with accelerating growth: approximately $1.75 million of revenue and approximately $312,000 of SDE in FY2025, revenue up 33% year over year and 19% compounded since FY2023, gross margins of 49% to 67% versus a low-40s peer median, profitable every year and self-funded. Two owned brands positioned in growing segments: one in longevity and metabolic wellness with a 2025-launched subscription program (several hundred active subscribers), the other an established premium traditional-wellness brand with several thousand customers, high order values, and repeat rates near 25%. Formulas, trademarks, storefronts, and customer data transfer with the sale. Diversified channels and an asset-light, domestic supply chain: ~70% U.S. revenue across Shopify, wholesale, and private label; ~30% through distributors serving Hong Kong, Mainland China, and Taiwan; about five U.S. contract manufacturers on purchase-order terms; owned fulfillment from a low-cost month-to-month warehouse. Built marketing infrastructure and multiple growth levers: paid social, search, email/SMS, and subscription tooling running at roughly 2.5x ROAS; a sports-performance line formulated with a golf-performance facility and a new Asian retail market both in motion; subscription for the second brand, Amazon activation, and dedicated wholesale/private-label sales effort untouched. Lean, transferable operation with seller support expected: two staff run daily operations on Shopify, Klaviyo, and QuickBooks; owner at ~20 hours per week with no salary drawn, exiting to focus on a separate manufacturing business, open to a defined transition and an extended advisory or earn-out role. An acquirer gains two owned consumer brands, a profitable multi-channel revenue base, U.S.-made products, an established Asia export channel, a working subscription and digital-marketing engine, and several practical paths to growth, offered at $1,500,000 plus saleable inventory at cost. Business details are disclosed only to qualified buyers after execution of a confidentiality agreement and advisor screening. Two catalysts are already in motion: a sports-performance and recovery product line formulated in collaboration with a golf-performance training facility, intended for bundling with training memberships and placement in golf-club retail, and a retail entry into an additional Asian market with a potential footprint of more than 50 locations. Beyond those, the obvious levers are launching a subscription option for the premium brand (thousands of customers, no auto-replenishment today), activating Amazon on hero SKUs, tightening paid-media attribution and first-month retention, and adding dedicated wholesale and private-label sales effort, which reached about 30% of revenue with no salesperson behind it. https://tworld.com/locations/California/veritage/listings/Supplement-Brand-Business-w-1-75M-Rev-33-Growth-312K-SDE

Licensed Preschool & RE | Affluent Demographics | SBA Eligible
$ 2,700,000
Description A rare opportunity to acquire both the business and real estate of a licensed preschool and early childhood education facility in one of Southern California’s most affluent, family-oriented communities. With nearly 90 licensed slots, prime demographics, and an irreplaceable location, this offering presents substantial upside for operators, investors, and education groups seeking scale in a high-demand market. NDA Link: https://childcareinsite.com/ht5465441/ Property Overview The facility features more than 4,500 square feet of interior space situated on over half an acre, with multiple classrooms, administrative offices, restrooms, and well-designed outdoor play areas. The site is purpose-built for early education and meets licensing requirements, with zoning that allows for educational use and flexibility for other commercial applications. The property’s visibility, accessibility, and presence in a land-constrained market make it highly attractive to both operators and investors. Business Overview This preschool has served the local community for more than two decades, earning a trusted reputation and strong online reviews. Current operations run below the licensed capacity, which provides a clear opportunity for new ownership to expand enrollment and significantly increase revenues. The combination of brand goodwill, established licensing, and operational infrastructure offers a strong foundation for a buyer to build upon. Growth Potential * Enrollment Expansion: With capacity for nearly 90 children, enrollment growth represents the most immediate opportunity to boost gross revenue by 40–50%. * Tuition Optimization: Current rates can be aligned with prevailing market benchmarks in this affluent trade area, increasing per-child revenue. * Program Enhancements: Demand supports the introduction of enrichment programs such as STEM, arts, music, language, and before/after school care. * Facility Upgrades: Targeted investments in classrooms, playgrounds, and curb appeal could modernize the facility and attract premium-paying families. * Subsidy Participation: Increasing participation in California child care subsidy programs (CSPP, CCTR, CACFP) could generate additional, stable revenue streams. Investment Highlights * Licensed capacity for nearly 90 children. * Purpose-built 4,500+ SF facility on a 0.56-acre parcel. * Over 20 years of continuous operation with strong community reputation. * Prime demographics with affluent, dual-income households and high educational spending. * Zoning allows educational use with potential for broader commercial applications. * Business and real estate offered together, eligible for SBA 7(a) or conventional financing. * Attractive to regional operators, national preschool chains, and private equity groups. Why This Opportunity Licensed preschool and child care facilities paired with real estate rarely come to market in this type of high-barrier-to-entry, affluent location. The combination of prime demographics, long-standing community trust, and a valuable license base creates immediate appeal, while the upside opportunities offer a compelling investment thesis. Next Steps Due to the confidential nature of this offering, further details—including financial performance, photos, videos, and a comprehensive offering memorandum—are available only upon execution of a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA). Qualified buyers will have the opportunity to review full business and property information and discuss financing structures. This is a unique chance to acquire a preschool and real estate package with scale, upside, and long-term value in one of Southern California’s most desirable education markets.
