Bast is a ~5 year old oral care product biz. Sole channel is FBA. Primary product is 4 variants of tongue scrapers. $23k in annual revenue, breakeven net income
The business primarily focuses on four variants of tongue scrapers, available in both copper and steel, offering options in single or double packs. Building its reputation on excellent reviews and robust manufacturing partnerships, the company holds verified status within Amazon’s brand registry, carving out a strong market niche primarily dominated by a few legacy brands. The business's value could be significantly enhanced through the expertise in Amazon marketing and expanding into new product lines.
Operationally, the business requires minimal involvement, with quarterly inventory orders being directly managed from suppliers to Amazon’s warehousing and fulfillment services. This setup eliminates the need for direct inventory handling by the owner, simplifying operations.
Financially, over the past year, the business has generated approximately $30,000 in sales, with $23,000 attributed to core tongue scraper products. Despite a 12-month net loss of $3,000, equating to a -14% net profit margin, these results largely stemmed from initial investments into a new steel scraper SKU. Recent quarterly profits show a reduced net loss margin of -4%.
Included in the sale are rights to sell the Amazon ASINs, access to key supplier relationships, brand assets, and trademark rights to the name 'BÄST'. Existing inventory will be sold separately and priced at wholesale cost at the time of sale.
The current owner is selling the business due to an increase in personal and professional responsibilities. They intend to provide transitional support to the new owner for a few months post-purchase to facilitate a smooth handover.
