9-Year-Old EC Business on Rakuten, Amazon, SHOPLIST and More (Hokkaido, Company Transfer)
HokkaidoIT
Business description
■Business Model
・Business Overview
This is the transfer of a company that operates stores on Rakuten, Amazon, SHOPLIST, and others. We mainly handle party dresses and accessories, importing and selling products from overseas rather than our own brand goods. Now nine years since launch, the business maintains stable sales and is expected to keep growing. The company is based in Hokkaido, but shipping and other operations are fully outsourced, so it can be run remotely by a single person from anywhere in the country.
[Recommended for]
・Those looking to newly start a mail-order business
・Those wishing to take over Rakuten, Yahoo! Shopping, and Amazon accounts
・Those wanting to absorb mail-order know-how
・Those wishing to acquire a stably profitable company or business
・Companies running an EC business that could expect synergies
[Main Sales Channels]
Rakuten, Yahoo! Shopping, Amazon, SHOPLIST, and our own EC site. We also run our own Instagram account with around 8,000 followers. The target is women in their 20s and 30s, and we hold a customer list of 20,000.
*Everything will be transferred. We mainly handle "low-price, high-margin, high-turnover" products, centered on trend items.
・Product and Service Features
We carry party dresses, apparel, and accessories. Product-selection know-how and business-operation know-how will also be transferred. Inventory: stock worth over ¥6 million at cost will also be transferred.
・Customer and Client Profile
The target is women in their 20s and 30s. We hold a customer list of 20,000. The entire client list can be taken over.
・Employees and Organization
[Can be run fully remotely] Operations are handled by one part-timer, one outside contractor, and an outsourced warehouse. LP and banner production by design staff is regularly outsourced, and we can introduce or arrange those contractors for you. Each party works online from a different region, so there is no need to maintain an office, and the business can be run at minimal cost. The owner can run the business from anywhere in the country. Our company is in Hokkaido, but shipping is handled remotely from a warehouse in the Kansai region. As some of this involves proprietary know-how, there may be parts of the operation we cannot fully disclose; we appreciate your understanding. We have earned high shop reviews, and operating across multiple malls reduces inventory risk. Inventory across the multiple malls is updated automatically by the system. Inventory management and shipping are outsourced to the warehouse. Receiving, shipping, inventory management, inspection, and packing are all outsourced to the warehouse. The outside contract warehouse handles the 2,000-plus shipments per month. Because shipping is outsourced, even during busy periods such as December the business can be run by a single staff member (handling only customer service). There is no need to adjust staff numbers with fluctuations in sales volume, nor to keep yourself busy packing and preparing shipments. We have built a system linked with the warehouse, and a day's shipping is completed by downloading the data and posting the shipping instructions (about two minutes). Warehouse shipping fees are charged per shipment, so fixed costs fall when order volume is low. There is no need to relocate inventory at the time of transfer, allowing the business to be carried on smoothly.
[What does the owner do?]
Customer inquiries amount to a few per day. The owner simply issues purchasing instructions twice a month; beyond that, daily operations run themselves. The owner spends about 10 hours a month on the business. This is a low-fixed-cost, high-margin, fully remote business.
・Strengths and Selling Points
We operate across multiple malls, have earned high ratings, and post stable sales every month. As this is a company transfer, the fact that all the Rakuten and Amazon mall accounts—now hard to obtain due to strict listing requirements and impossible to hand over in an ordinary business transfer—can be taken over is a major advantage. Products center on "low unit price, high margin, high turnover," with no need to rent a new warehouse for storage or to be tied up with daily packing and shipping. We have built up SNS followers and also generate sales on our own site. The risk of dead stock from reckless purchasing has been reduced, and we have run the business relatively conservatively to date. The business can be run on its own immediately after transfer. We will responsibly hand over the site, clients, and more. The format is also easy to operate for those newly taking on online retail. We hope you will give it your consideration. Thank you.
