Description
Business Description
A single leased location in Stark County, Ohio houses this tanning operation, built around prepaid packages purchased by walk-in and appointment clients. Package revenue drives the substantial majority of sales, with retail product sales forming a smaller secondary stream.
Clients return on a subscription-like rhythm inherent to package-based tanning, generating repeat transaction volume without dependence on one-time visits. The business closed 2024, its first complete year of operation, at $115,911 in revenue with a 96.4 percent gross margin and Adjusted SDE of $34,442. That SDE figure includes a management add-back reflecting the absentee structure current ownership maintains.
TanTrack software runs point-of-sale, package tracking, and sales tax reporting, giving the operation a documented, auditable revenue trail. A team of 3 to 5 full and part-time staff handles reception and facility upkeep, keeping the labor structure lean relative to revenue.
A buyer acquires an established client base, a functioning software and reporting stack, and a facility with sales tax filings confirming growth into 2025 and 2026. The incoming owner-operator role represents the primary gap between current performance and the business's full potential, since ownership does not currently work in the business day to day.
Business History
Tax records show the business was started or acquired in 2023, producing $37,289 in revenue during that partial first year. 2024 became its first full calendar year, with revenue climbing to $115,911.
Operations have continued uninterrupted from the same Stark County location through 2025 and into 2026, with sales tax filings confirming sustained growth rather than a plateau. The trajectory places current-year revenue on pace for approximately $140,500 annualized, extending the growth pattern established in the business's first two years.
Potential Growth and Expansion
Retail product sales remain underdeveloped relative to package sales, leaving expanded merchandising as an immediate opportunity requiring no new footprint.
Red-light therapy and hybrid UV/red-light services sit outside the current service menu despite growing category demand industry-wide.
Operating hours currently limit peak-period walk-in capacity; extended hours capture additional volume from the existing client flow.
Membership and package upsell structures raise average client spend without new client acquisition cost.
Paid digital and social media advertising remain untapped as a client acquisition channel beyond current methods.
Competitive Overview
Stark County counts approximately 373,771 residents across more than 155,000 households, with adults age 25 to 64 representing nearly half the population, the demographic segment most aligned with indoor tanning demand. The Canton, Ohio market carries an established roster of competing salons, confirming durable regional demand for the category.
The U.S. tanning salon industry was valued at roughly $1.9 billion in 2025. Salons nationally trade at a median asking price of $157,500 on median revenue of $222,224, with SDE multiples ranging from 2.06x to 3.13x. This listing's 3.63x multiple sits above that national range.

Ideal Buyer Profile
This opportunity suits a buyer ready to step into daily operations personally, since current ownership operates at an absentee distance and the general manager function needs to be filled directly. Prior experience running a retail, service, or membership-based business translates directly, particularly comfort with point-of-sale and scheduling software. Because 2024 Adjusted SDE does not fully cover SBA debt service once a market-rate owner salary is factored in, buyers should plan for a larger equity contribution, a seller note, or comparable financing rather than relying on maximum leverage.
- Retail product sales remain underdeveloped relative to package sales, leaving expanded merchandising as an immediate opportunity requiring no new footprint.
- Additional Red-light therapy and hybrid UV/red-light services sit outside the current service menu despite growing category demand industry-wide.
- Operating hours currently limit peak-period walk-in capacity; extended hours capture additional volume from the existing client flow.
- Membership and package upsell structures raise average client spend without new client acquisition cost.
- Paid digital and social media advertising remain untapped as a client acquisition channel beyond current methods.

Stark County, Ohio
Northeast Ohio Chemical Distribution Dual-Revenue Model
$ 374,900
Northeast Ohio Chemical Distribution Dual-Revenue Model $423,261 Annual Revenue from Product Distribution and Equipment Repair Serving the Same Client Accounts Business Description Commercial and industrial facilities in Stark County purchase chemical products on a recurring cycle. When the equipment running those products requires service, this company handles that too. Both transactions bill to the same client. That structure produces two revenue streams without requiring two separate sales efforts, and it creates a dependency that a single-service competitor cannot match on price alone. Equipment repair is the retention mechanism. A facility relying on this company for both chemical supply and system uptime faces real operational risk in switching vendors. That risk keeps accounts active across billing cycles and reduces the price sensitivity that distribution-only relationships carry. The financial result is $423,261 in annual revenue at a 35.3% SDE margin from a one-employee operation with no facility lease and no warehouse overhead. Revenue has increased each year since 2009. The cost structure stays lean because the model requires no inventory on the books and no FF&E investment. A buyer acquires customer accounts, supplier relationships, 16 years of service records, and the operational systems currently supporting $149,314 in annual SDE. The $374,900 purchase price is the only capital outlay required at closing. Business History Chemical distribution was the original service when the company launched in Stark County in 2009. Equipment repair capability was added as the client base grew and facility needs expanded beyond product delivery. That expansion created the dual-revenue structure the business operates under today. Revenue increased each year through that development period and has continued on that trajectory. Sixteen years of active operation produced a documented service history across commercial and industrial accounts in Stark County. The one-employee model has supported the current revenue level throughout, and the business has remained profitable without interruption across multiple economic cycles. Potential Growth and Expansion The service area covers Stark County. Summit, Tuscarawas, and Wayne counties are adjacent markets requiring no additional equipment or facility investment to enter. Existing service accounts operate without annual maintenance agreements. Converting current clients to contract-based schedules produces predictable recurring revenue from accounts already generating billable work. The current product catalog does not include all chemical lines available through existing supplier relationships. Adding product lines to current accounts requires no new client development. One additional field technician increases the volume of simultaneous service calls. Current capacity is constrained by the single-operator model, not by client demand. Increasing regulatory requirements around chemical handling and equipment compliance in Northeast Ohio industrial facilities create a consulting revenue opportunity within the existing client base. Competitive Overview Two competitor types serve chemical distribution in Northeast Ohio. National distributors operate through centralized logistics with broad product catalogs and no on-site service capability. Regional independents compete on delivery speed and price but do not offer equipment repair. The combination of distribution and repair in a single operation requires product knowledge and technical service skill simultaneously. That combination is not common among regional competitors and takes years of client relationship development to build. Demand from Stark County manufacturing, food processing, and commercial facilities is not discretionary. Chemical programs require maintenance and equipment requires service regardless of economic conditions. That demand characteristic produces consistent purchasing behavior across market cycles and limits the revenue volatility that discretionary service businesses face. Key Highlights Annual revenue of $423,261 with SDE of $149,314 (35.3% margin) Founded in 2009, 16 years of continuous operation in Stark County 1 employee; no facility lease, no warehouse, no inventory on the books FF&E of $0; low capital requirements beyond the $374,900 purchase price Dual revenue model from chemical product distribution and equipment repair Revenue growing year over year with clean financial records Primary opportunity is adding one field technician to increase service call capacity Reason for sale is retirement Financials Summary Annual Revenue $423,261 Seller's Discretionary Earnings $149,314 SDE Margin 35.3% Asking Price $374,900 Price-to-SDE Multiple 2.51x FF&E $0 Inventory $0 Revenue Trend Increasing year over year Ideal Buyer Profile Industrial sales, chemical distribution, or equipment service experience shortens the transition period and reduces training time on the technical side. $374,900 in available capital covers the full purchase price with nothing additional required at closing for real estate or equipment. Daily involvement in both sales and service delivery is required at the current staffing level. A buyer who adds one field technician creates the capacity to shift into a management role while revenue scales. Existing relationships in the Northeast Ohio commercial or industrial market accelerate account growth from the first week of ownership. Confidentiality Notice A signed confidentiality agreement is required before financial details are released. Qualified buyers should contact the listing broker to request the full offering memorandum.
