Premier Custom Screen Printing + Embroidery Business
$ 350,000
North County San Diego: Quality apparel decoration with full packaging services including relabeling, inside neck size label, sewn in neck and hem labels, hangtags, folding and bagging, size sticker, UPS labeling and more. The bulk of the revenue comes from screen printing. Whether used to brand customer business, provide team uniforms, or satisfy special events, this is the place customers go to get what they want to promote and support their brand. The business has the capacity to produce an average of 10,000 units per day, but equipment is running about 40% capacity for life style reasons. Business enjoys 5-star reviews and can boast about 250 customers, with about 50% repeating YOY with 39 new in 2024, 28 new 2025 Jan-July. A+ BBB accredited since 2020.

There are currently three employees working up to 6 hours 5 days per week plus seller/s. Bench of additional employees may be engaged as needed. Seller is active full time in the business and will stay to support transition as needed on a negotiated basis. Seller does plan to move out of CA following adequate transition. Business is best suited for active owner operator. The business survived COVID while the industry shrunk with competitors closing. They implemented, and then quickly pivoted away from, an expansion strategy in late 2023. The pivot significantly increased SDE (seller discretionary earnings) due to decreased expenses - even though revenue was down. It also virtually eliminated “receivables”. Most current customers pay 50% at time of order, and 50% upon delivery. Only 1 customer receives pick ‘n pack service. A few are net 30. Seller feels there is significant growth potential for a motivated buyer implementing basic marketing that has been untapped. Equipment will transfer in good working order. Printers have been recently refurbished following move. A long-term independent maintenance professional has been involved with the care of equipment for many years. FFE Estimate: $125,000 plus about $5,000 in back stock though no “inventory”. In 2024, SDE was a little about $146,212. 2025 SDE $204,572 with significant owner involvement. Q1 Sales and GP UP YOY in 2026. Move to new location (w/in 7 miles of prior) was completed in January. 5-year Lease $4267 monthly including CAM effective 4/1/26. 2597 SqFt. SBA won't work due to the pivot. Seller financing up to $150,000 of asking price for no more than 36 months is possible for qualified buyers (assuming no other financing). Price Firm: $350,000. https://tworld.com/locations/California/sandiegonorth/listings/-Premier-Custom-Screen-Printing-Embroidery-Business-
