Key Highlights
Description
This is a well-established, 30-year-old profitable mailbox and shipping center located in the heart of downtown Chicago. The business offers a comprehensive range of services including domestic and international shipping, mailbox rentals, call forwarding, and mail forwarding. It stands out as the only non-franchised center in its prime downtown location on a historic street. The premises offer ample unused space with potential for transformation into new concepts such as insurance, printing, digital design, or marketing services. Alternatively, the existing mail/print model can be expanded with design services, office supplies, merchandise, notary services, and 24-hour mailbox rentals. The business benefits significantly from high pedestrian traffic, with no current advertising efforts. A new owner can capitalize on opportunities to enhance partnerships with major shipping carriers like FedEx, UPS, and DHL. The seller is retiring and is offering seller financing, requiring only $35,000 down. They are committed to ensuring a smooth transition by staying on to train the new owner. This presents a strong opportunity for growth and diversification.
