Description
The store features an exciting mix of officially licensed college and professional team apparel, autographed memorabilia, home décor, games, and unique gift items that appeal to both serious collectors and casual tourists. Its enclosed location inside a popular downtown shopping complex delivers consistent, weather-protected foot traffic year-round, providing a comfortable shopping experience regardless of rain, heat, or cold mountain weather.
This is a turnkey operation with reliable systems and an experienced team already in place:
Trusted General Manager and two supporting staff (1 full-time, 1 part-time)
Strong profit margins with keystone pricing on standard merchandise and healthy margins on premium collectibles
Established processes including Square POS and ADP payroll
Up to $135,000 of well-maintained inventory included in the asking price
While currently absentee-owned, this business offers excellent upside for a hands-on owner-operator who can increase revenue and profitability through active daily management, inventory optimization, and selective pricing strategies. The seller is motivated to sell as he moves toward retirement and wants to stay closer to home.
Seller financing may be available for a qualified buyer with a substantial down payment. This is a rare opportunity to own a long-standing, niche retail business in one of America’s most popular tourist destinations with decades of proven performance. Gatlinburg delivers reliable, high-volume foot traffic with built-in resilience. While there are natural seasonal and annual fluctuations (weather, holidays, economic cycles), the long-term trend is consistently strong, supported by a massive, irreplaceable draw — America’s most popular national park, The Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
