$400K Rev. Shelving Franchise, Semi-Absentee

This franchise designs, manufactures, and installs custom pull-out shelving that adds storage, easier access, and organization to existing kitchen, bath, and pantry cabinets. It runs under a nationally recognized franchise system with a protected territory in East Tennessee. Sales happen through in-home design appointments during daytime hours, so evenings stay free.

Customers are mostly residential homeowners, along with some renters and assisted-living residents, and the revenue mix is broad rather than dependent on a handful of accounts. Most projects are one-time installations, but repeat and referral work is steady.

Day to day, the owner spends roughly 15 hours a week on marketing, finances, and supporting the field, while a contract designer runs sales appointments and two contract installers handle measurement and installation. The team is long-tenured and largely self-managing. The sale transfers the franchise rights, brand systems, service vehicle, home-show booth, and installation equipment.

It suits an owner-operator or a semi-absentee investor who wants an established home-services brand with room to scale.

Retirement

The operation runs from a home office with no retail lease, keeping fixed overhead low. Included assets total roughly $19,000 and consist of a crew-cab pickup used for measurement and installs, a home-show marketing booth, and a full set of installation tools. Product and marketing inventory is available but not included in the sale. A buyer steps into a mobile, low-fixed-cost business with the equipment needed to keep running from day one. (Home Based)

The seller will assist the new owner before and after closing to ensure a smooth transition and a strong start, with the specific arrangement mutually agreed upon by both parties.

Demand is driven by the ongoing home-organization trend and a growing aging-in-place population that values easier cabinet access and storage. Customers are primarily residential homeowners, with additional work from renters and assisted-living residents, and the business benefits from national franchise brand recognition, a protected territory, and steady repeat and referral work. Backing from an established franchisor, including systems, training, and marketing support, provides a barrier that a standalone local competitor would struggle to match.

Growth is available through the aging-in-place market, where relationships with senior care centers and assisted-living communities can turn into a recurring referral pipeline for accessibility-focused installs. Expanding digital advertising and social media, both currently underused, would feed more in-home design appointments across the territory. As home organization becomes an expected feature the way custom closets did, and as the franchisor rolls out new product and service lines, the existing designer and install capacity can absorb higher job volume without major added overhead.
