Case Study: a pair of sellers achieve a $12 million Shopify store exit with Empire Flippers

A Pair of Sellers exit a Shopify store for $12 million with Empire Flippers

The customer, a pair of sellers who built a bootstrapped Shopify store selling spiritual jewelry and subscription boxes, faced the challenge of finding a qualified buyer for their highly profitable, eight-figure business. They needed a broker with access to a pool of high-net-worth individuals and firms capable of facilitating such a large transaction. They turned to the vendor, Empire Flippers, and its marketplace service to manage the sale.

Empire Flippers listed the business, attracting 33 serious buyers including large aggregators. After a negotiation process managed by Empire Flippers, a deal was successfully closed with a multinational public company for $12.9 million. The solution resulted in a life-changing exit for the sellers, who walked away $12 million richer after the lengthy due diligence process was complete.
