Profitable Online Store for Compatible Bicycle Brake Pads

Domain & Store: Premium keyword domain, established for over 10 years Annual net revenue: Ø €75,000 (very consistent) Annual profit (EBITDA): approx. €28,000 Inventory at cost, including procurement costs: €20,000 (can be operated with or without a warehouse) Time commitment: only approx. 20 hours/week → semi-passive Repeat customers: approx. 50% (strong B2C + B2B: bike repair shops, clubs, regular customers) Products & Positioning Imported from China according to the owner’s own specifications and production requirements No original parts—instead, high-quality, competitively priced alternatives with an excellent price-performance ratio Key safety advantage: For the past 10 years, the shop owner has assumed full product liability for all brake pads sold. Valid product liability insurance is in place—not a single claim has been reported or settled in 10 years. The risk therefore clearly remains with the current owner and is not transferred to the buyer (the buyer can decide whether to assume the insurance or take out their own). Extreme trust factor Trustami: 24,135 reviews with 4.98 / 5.00 stars (99.48% positive—since 2015!) eBay account: over 21,000 reviews spanning 10 years (currently inactive – enormous potential for reactivation) Why is this a top follow-up deal? Classic wear-and-tear product → very high repeat purchase rate & predictable

Buying a company vs. buying a firm

Buying a company means acquiring an independent organizational unit that regularly carries out an economic activity. A company can consist of one or several business operations. An individual can also found such an independent unit if they regularly carry out an economic activity — in that case it is called a sole proprietorship. As a rule, sole proprietors don't have to register in the commercial register; without that registration, they don't legally count as a "firm." A trade name, colloquially a "firm," is the name under which a company or sole proprietor appears publicly and conducts its business. Buying "a firm" therefore technically means acquiring the company's name or trading name. In everyday use, though, it's used interchangeably with buying a company — i.e. acquiring the entire business.
