Executive Summary

Business Description

For nearly a decade, this lighting showroom has served as San Francisco's premier destination for commercial and residential lighting and has been voted “Best Lighting Showroom” for two years running in SFGate.com. The owner's personal mission to consistently exceed the expectations of customers has given the business a strong public appeal, a great reputation, and strong repeat business from its regular clientele.

It is the only showroom in the area with wholesale, retail, and custom design work among its many product and service offerings. It features exclusive one-of-a-kind fixtures fabricated by local designers among its wide array of lighting products. It serves the Bay Area's top architectural lighting specialists, contractors and interior designers, acting as a wholesale lighting supplier and a design resource. The professional team's projects span from high-end residential, small and large spec. homes, high-rise condominium and apartment developments to commercial, non-profit and hospitality installations. The retail showroom, located in one of San Francisco's most desirable shopping areas, is surrounded by multiple high-end boutiques, as well as restaurants and other specialty stores, offering the business great visibility and the ability to cater to customers from the immediate Bay Area as well as to its worldwide visitors. Its very attractive, user-friendly website effectively showcases its range of lighting solutions.

Historically, nearly 2/3 of the sales volume has originated with connections within the design trade. A buyer already involved in design, or with a strong interest in it, would find this to be a particularly attractive and lucrative opportunity. The Owner, however, will introduce the buyer to existing and past clients as well as to proven sources for developing leads within the trade.
