Stunning Formalwear Boutique with Designer Inventory and Loyal Clients
Business Description
This well-established boutique has been dressing New Jersey and tri-state area customers for over 17 years, specializing in formalwear for prom, weddings, and other milestone events. Known for its top designer inventory—like Sherri Hill, Jovani, and Mon Cheri —this business blends personal service with high-end fashion. Clients book appointments to ensure one-on-one stylist attention, a strategy that has built a loyal customer base and sets the boutique apart from competitors. Operating in a 2,500 sq. ft. space in Livingston, New Jersey, the boutique serves up to 60 clients per day during prom season, which runs January through April. The business is seasonal, with lighter hours in the summer, and sees another uptick in fall. While about 5% of sales are online, most revenue comes from in-store visits where customers can try on dresses before purchasing. With roughly $150,000 in inventory and strong vendor relationships, the business is set up for smooth operations. There’s no debt, and the current rent is $4,300/month with a new lease signed just last October. The staff includes a reliable seasonal team plus three year-round employees. A buyer could grow the business by expanding into bridal, accessories, or high-end mother-of-the-bride gowns, or by adding credit card surcharges to improve margins.
The seller is committed to a smooth transition, offering exceptional support and training. Additionally, the experienced and dedicated staff are willing to continue with the new owner, ensuring continuity and stability.
