Description
The company features a simple, efficient operating model with multiple revenue streams, including strong in-store sales and mobile catering, which provides an additional revenue stream and creates opportunities for private events, festivals, corporate functions, and off-site sales.
Year-over-year, overall business transactions are up 8% and sales have increased 13.5%, reflecting continued momentum and strong consumer demand. Seasonal peak months generate significant volume, while the area's robust tourism economy provides a consistent customer base throughout the year. As the only location of its kind in Tennessee, the business occupies a unique position in the market and offers further opportunities for growth and expansion.
Momentum has continued into 2026, with sales through August reaching approximately $275,000 and SDE of approximately $78,000. These year-to-date results put the business on pace for its best-performing year to date and provide a strong foundation for continued growth.
Additional upside exists for an expansion-minded buyer through increased event participation, enhanced local partnerships, expanded operating hours, mobile unit growth, and the potential development of additional locations within the surrounding territory.
Ideal opportunity for an owner-operator, family business, or strategic buyer seeking a recognizable concept in a premier destination market. Training and transition assistance available.

Specialized Pest Detection Business – Trained K-9 Teams
$ 675,000
First of its kind in Tennessee, this established niche inspection business serves the hospitality and tourism markets of East Tennessee using trained K-9 detection teams. Operating since 2008, the company was one of the first of its kind in the United States and has built a strong reputation among hotels, resorts, cabins, and property management companies throughout the Smoky Mountain region, along with select residential customers. The business utilizes professionally trained detection dogs capable of identifying pest activity with significantly greater accuracy than traditional visual inspections. This specialized service model creates a meaningful barrier to entry, as trained K-9 assets, certified handlers, proprietary systems, and long-standing industry relationships require both time and capital to replicate. Revenue is supported by a mix of recurring inspection accounts and on-demand service work, with a significant portion tied to hospitality clients who require routine inspections. The company generates consistent revenue and strong cash flow, supported by a lean operational structure and an experienced team. Trained canine handlers are currently in place and expected to remain following a transition, providing continuity for a new owner. The sale includes trained K-9 assets, service vehicles, movable K-9 kennels and related equipment, proprietary reporting software, established branding, and an active client base. The kennel system is designed to be relocated, allowing flexibility in establishing a new operating location. The business is currently home-based, and multiple housing options exist for the K-9 assets. Buyers may choose to utilize an existing garage, outbuilding, or kennel facility on their own property. Other options include commercial boarding facilities and handler-based arrangements. The current operation is housed within a modest kennel facility, demonstrating that a large footprint is not required. The seller is willing to assist with temporary housing during the transition period while a buyer establishes permanent accommodations. This opportunity is well suited for a pest control company seeking a strategic acquisition, an owner-operator, or an entrepreneur interested in owning a specialized service business. The business currently operates with trained handlers performing the majority of inspection work, while ownership primarily oversees administration, scheduling, and operational support. With the right management structure and personnel in place, the business has the potential to be operated on a semi-absentee basis. Previous pest control experience is not required. Buyers who are comfortable working with dogs and managing day-to-day operations can learn the business through comprehensive seller training and established third-party certification programs. The seller will provide transition support to ensure a smooth onboarding process and is willing to remain available as a consultant following the sale, providing ongoing training, operational guidance, and industry knowledge as needed. Get in touch with Sheila Hansen of Transworld Business Advisors of Knoxville today to request an NDA to learn more about this special business listing. Opportunities exist to expand into new geographic markets, increase marketing efforts, and add additional canine teams to service a broader area. Additional upside includes offering extended hours, emergency/on-call services, and strengthening recurring inspection contracts within the hospitality sector. https://tworld.com/locations/Tennessee/knoxvillechattanooga/listings/Specialized-Pest-Detection-Business-–-Trained-K-9-Teams
