Description
The operation is structured for efficiency, with streamlined processes and an approachable retail environment that supports both repeat and new customers. Its reputation and strong word-of-mouth presence have allowed it to maintain steady traffic without relying heavily on traditional advertising.
There are several clear opportunities for future growth under new ownership. One of the most immediate opportunities is the addition of a dedicated sales resource focused on team, apparel, and organizational sales, which could expand revenue beyond walk-in retail traffic.
Additional growth could be achieved through increased marketing initiatives, expanded community partnerships, and deeper engagement with local organizations and sports programs. The business is well-positioned to benefit from ongoing participation trends in youth athletics, where recurring equipment needs and product replacement cycles support continued demand.
Operationally, the business is already structured as a turnkey operation, allowing a new owner to step in and focus on scaling revenue rather than building foundational systems.

Turnkey Sports Retailer with Loyal Base
$ 450,000
This business operates as a specialty sporting goods retailer focused on delivering high-quality equipment, apparel, and services to a dedicated customer base. The company has built a strong reputation for product expertise, personalized service, and consistent reliability. In addition to retail sales, the business offers value-added services that enhance customer retention and differentiate it from larger, less specialized competitors. The operation is structured for efficiency, with streamlined processes and an approachable retail environment that supports both repeat and new customers. Its reputation and strong word-of-mouth presence have allowed it to maintain steady traffic without relying heavily on traditional advertising.

Trading Cards and Collectible Shop - Seller Financing
Call/Email
Established trading card retailer specializing in Pokemon, Magic: The Gathering, and sports cards, with revenue driven primarily by singles and sealed product sales. The shop holds active distributor accounts with allocation access on high-demand sealed product (Pokemon Elite Trainer Boxes, premium Magic releases, limited sports product) that new entrants to the hobby cannot replicate. In a market where allocation is the gate to inventory, these accounts represent meaningful enterprise value. A new buyer opening a card shop today would wait years to build comparable access, if they could secure it at all. Current ownership operates the business as a lifestyle venture with a loyal local collector base across all three product categories. Growth opportunities include expanded hours, online sales channels, event programming (FNM, prereleases, league play), and case-breaking for singles inventory. Owner is selling to focus on other interests and will provide transition support to transfer allocation accounts and customer relationships cleanly. https://tworld.com/locations/Wisconsin/northeast-wisconsin/listings/Trading-Cards-and-Collectible-Shop-Seller-Financing

Patent-Protected E-Commerce Brand | Niche Athletic Product
$ 685,000
Direct-to-consumer e-commerce product through Shopify and Amazon. The product is protected by a U.S. design patent, providing differentiation in a competitive category. Operations are straightforward and largely outsourced. Manufacturing is handled by established suppliers, while fulfillment is primarily managed through Amazon FBA and third-party logistics. A portion of inventory is currently stored at a partner’s warehouse, where a contracted 1099 worker handles boxing and shipping at a per-unit rate. This arrangement can continue under new ownership, though it may be adjusted depending on the buyer’s preferred logistics setup. The business does not require a dedicated warehouse, retail location, or full-time employees. Revenue has grown consistently over the past three years, reaching approximately $300K in 2025 with strong margins. Demand is supported by the fact that headgear is required equipment in youth sports, with regular replacement cycles. The business is highly portable and can be operated from anywhere. It is well-suited for an owner-operator or an existing e-commerce buyer looking to add a differentiated product line. Inventory of approximately $200K (at cost) is included in the sale. Paid advertising. Current spend is modest; a disciplined Meta, Google, and Amazon PPC program has clear runway at current product margins. International Amazon marketplaces. Canada, UK, and EU marketplaces have not been activated despite an active international community. Product line extensions. The design patent supports natural extensions within the same IP family — additional colorways, youth-specific sizing, team customization, and complementary accessories. Wholesale and B2B. Currently 100% DTC; specialty retailers, programs, and clubs represent established channels that have not been pursued. Team and institutional sales. Bulk orders for programs, camps, and clubs are a proven category segment that has not been systematically developed. Ambassador and content marketing. Influencer and content-driven marketing is a proven category playbook that current ownership has not executed at scale. https://tworld.com/locations/Wisconsin/northeast-wisconsin/listings/Patent-Protected-E-Commerce-Brand-Niche-Athletic-Product-
Adams County, Wisconsin
Turnkey Restaurant and Bakery with Owned Real Estate, Central WI
$ 369,000
Established retail restaurant and bakery located on Main Street in a central Wisconsin community, offered as a complete package that includes the commercial real estate, all furniture, fixtures, and equipment, and inventory at cost. The business has generated roughly $475,000 to $527,000 in annual revenue with a loyal, decade-plus customer base, producing fresh-baked goods, donuts, cakes, and deli and catering items. The sale includes a fully equipped, turnkey commercial kitchen: convection oven, commercial mixers, multiple walk-in coolers and a walk-in freezer, refrigerated display, deli, and donut cases, prep equipment, and more. Recent improvements include a newer HVAC unit and roof work, with a grant-funded hood and Ansul fire suppression system, and additional renovations underway. Because the owned building is part of the offering, this is an ideal opportunity for an owner-operator or food entrepreneur to step into a complete operation and real estate at one price, free and clear of long-term debt at closing. Strong upside exists for a hands-on owner who can manage food and labor costs. Financials available to qualified buyers under an NDA. The business presents a clear turnaround and growth opportunity for a hands-on owner. Food cost as a percentage of sales has risen in recent years, leaving meaningful margin recovery available through menu pricing and purchasing discipline. Additional upside levers include tighter labor scheduling, expansion of the catering and deli lines already in place, extended hours or product offerings, and use of the grant-funded kitchen upgrades. With proven top-line revenue already established, an operator who improves cost control can materially improve the bottom line. https://tworld.com/locations/Wisconsin/northeast-wisconsin/listings/Turnkey-Restaurant-and-Bakery-with-Owned-Real-Estate-Central-WI

Established Residential Cleaning Business with Loyal Client Base
$ 75,000
Well-established residential cleaning business serving the Fox Valley area with a strong reputation for quality service and reliability. The business offers recurring home cleaning services with an established customer base and consistent repeat business. Strong online presence with positive customer reviews and growth opportunities for a new owner. Ideal opportunity for an owner-operator or existing cleaning company looking to expand. Growth opportunities include expanding marketing efforts, hiring additional cleaning staff, increasing service territory, adding commercial cleaning accounts, and offering additional specialty cleaning services such as deep cleans, move-in/move-out cleans, or short-term rental turnover services. https://tworld.com/locations/Wisconsin/northeast-wisconsin/listings/Established-Residential-Cleaning-Business-with-Loyal-Client-Base
Winnebago County, Wisconsin
Established Catering Company Specializing in Corporate & Memorial
$ 350,000
This well-established, full-service catering business has built a loyal client base serving corporate events and memorial gatherings throughout the Northeast Wisconsin region. With consistent revenue and margins, the company benefits from steady repeat business and long-standing referral relationships that drive reliable demand year-round. The sale includes all furniture, fixtures, and equipment (valued at approximately $65,000), inventory, and the company's catering vehicles. The owner is retiring and is willing to provide training to ensure a smooth transition. This is a turnkey opportunity for an owner-operator or an existing food service business looking to expand into a profitable, relationship-driven catering niche. There are many opportunities for a new owner to expand the business. The company previously served the wedding market and exited it by the owner's choice rather than for any operational reason, leaving a revenue segment the company has experience serving. The corporate event side, currently treated as secondary, is another area a new owner may choose to develop. Because the current owner regularly declines additional work to maintain a preferred pace, some of this demand already exists. https://tworld.com/locations/Wisconsin/northeast-wisconsin/listings/Established-Catering-Company-Specializing-in-Corporate-Memorial

$ 225,000

Commercial Client Development Targeting additional local businesses for ongoing shipping and logistics services could significantly increase recurring revenue. Expanded Marketing Initiatives Leveraging digital marketing, local partnerships, and community engagement can drive additional retail traffic.
