NEHS Hardware & Lumber presents an exceptional turnkey acquisition opportunity in the recession-resistant building materials sector. Established in 2013, this profitable business serves rural Cherry Creek, NY, and surrounding Chautauqua and Cattaraugus County communities with approximately $607,912 in annual revenue and $197,816 in Seller’s Discretionary Earnings.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

This full-service hardware and lumber operation functions as a one-stop destination for homeowners, contractors, farmers, seasonal residents, and the local Amish community. The diverse product mix includes lumber, drywall, plumbing and HVAC supplies, electrical materials, paint, tools, appliances, household supplies, and farm supplies, supporting multiple revenue streams and consistent year-round demand.
