A kitchenware brand specializing in a unique ten-piece measuring spoon set is being offered for sale. This brand operates through the Amazon US marketplace, selling a private label product. The measuring spoon set comes in two colors—gray and teal—and features both a standard and a mini set. The latter is notable for including numerical and descriptive measurements (e.g., "Tad" for 1/4 tsp). The unique feature of having both types of measurement is a key selling point and differentiates this product in the market.
Assets included in the sale are product photography, artwork, and a website domain that redirects to Amazon listings. The current inventory, which as of March 2018 was 350 units, is also part of the sale. The business no longer sells a gray cup set, as the remaining units were sold at cost, negatively impacting the financial bottom line.
Operationally, the business requires 2-3 hours of weekly involvement, primarily for tasks such as inventory management, checking Amazon ads, and handling customer service. The business operates solely through Amazon FBA and uses one supplier, who provides custom stamping dies for the measuring spoon set.
The sale does not include any written agreements with suppliers, and any remaining inventory at the time of sale will be transferred to the new owner. The business could benefit from volume pricing and more economical shipping methods if a buyer has sufficient capital. Revenue and traffic metrics have been verified, although potential buyers are encouraged to conduct independent due diligence.
