Business Description
A rare opportunity to acquire a well-established mail and parcel services business that has served the affluent Palos Verdes Peninsula community since 1980. The business offers multi-carrier shipping (UPS, FedEx, USPS & DHL), private mailbox rentals, notary services, printing and packaging supplies to a loyal base of walk-in and subscription customers. As the only long-established mail center in its trade area, it has a durable local position, with roughly 300 recurring Mailbox subscribers who provide predictable monthly revenue. The business generated $183,122 in Seller’s Discretionary Earnings (SDE) on $317,082 in revenue over the trailing twelve months. It runs from a ~1,200 SF storefront at just $2,000/month, has a lean owner-operated model, and comes with a seller committed to a smooth transition. It is ideal for an owner-operator or as an add-on for an existing postal or logistics operator.
Investment Highlights
45 Year Established Brand: Five decades of continuous operation have built deep customer loyalty and a trusted local reputation that transfers to the new owner on Day 1.
Strong, Growing Cash Flow: SDE has grown 56% since FY2022, and the SDE margin has expanded from 32% to 58%.
Recurring Revenue Base: There are 327 active Mail Box subscribers that provide stable monthly income regardless of daily walk-in traffic. No single customer accounts for more than 2% of revenue.
Local Moat: No nearby competitors. UPS, FedEx, DHL, and USPS carrier relationships, the subscriber base, and 46 years of walk-in traffic create real barriers to entry.
Low Overhead: A month-to-month lease at $2,000/month (about 7.6% of revenue) with a cooperative long-term landlord, and minimal staffing.
Multiple Growth Levers: Mailbox repricing and tiered plans, Live Scan fingerprinting, mobile notary, passport photos, a digital presence, and outreach to local small businesses.
Turnkey Transition: No proprietary systems or specialized licensing, carrier agreements are transferable, and the seller will provide about 30 days of on-site training.
Equipment is owned: All copiers, computers, FotoZoomer kiosk are owned free and clear.
Asking Price: $495,000 (2.7x TTM SDE)
Reason for Sale: Owner retiring after 46 years.
