A French-based Shopify store specializing in rocking chairs and recliners was launched in mid-July 2026. Within two months, the store received 57 orders, generating approximately €22,762 in sales, with an average basket value of €399. The standout product, a five-position reclining rocking chair named DOLVÉA, accounted for most sales. The business features a custom-designed theme with detailed product descriptions, FAQs, a video banner, and a reusable promotional structure for events like Black Friday. The catalog includes 26 products, each showcased with written content, photos, and videos.
Order fulfillment is directly managed by suppliers, with delivery times varying from 7 to 10 business days for most products, and up to 25 days for items like DOLVÉA, which are made-to-order by a new supplier. Customer service is available via WhatsApp and email, and payments can be made through multiple platforms, including Klarna for installment payments. Key applications used include Klarna, Track123, and Parcel Panel for order tracking, alongside Google and YouTube channels.
The client base is primarily French, with 84% accessing the store via mobile devices, indicating a preference for comfortable recliners for living spaces. Initially, nearly all traffic came from free Google Shopping listings. However, since September 7, 2026, traffic has plummeted due to a product rejection issue in Google Merchant Center, which is under resolution.
Growth opportunities include restoring Google Shopping traffic, launching paid advertising campaigns, capitalizing on upcoming high-sales periods, reducing lead times by stocking inventory in France, and expanding into Belgium and Switzerland. The current owner is selling due to involvement in other projects. The sale includes the Shopify store, custom theme, all content, supplier contacts, and customer and order history.
