Type Business:                                                   Tanning Salon

State/Region:                                                        Mississippi

Revenues: $45,000                 Earnings: $45,000              

Price:          $45,000

Inventory: $40,000

Summary Description: Be your own boss in a fun environment!  Complete 5 bed tanning salon.

 Sale includes 5 beds, extra bulbs, timers, tanning POS software, displays,  furnishings, a cash register and a large quantity of retail inventory; including  lotions, jewelry, handbags, and more. Tanning equipment and displays are already set up.

Wires and timers and electrical are already run. Tanning room walls are already built and finished. Tanning rooms are painted, furnished and decorated. Current location is already established as a tanning salon which  houses 5 tanning rooms, a restroom, an office with still room to grow.

The equipment may remain in the current location as is, which is adjacent to an established hair salon.

All equipment and inventory is for sale, as is, in a "lot" only and will not  be sold separately.  So, don’t waste your time or ours by calling asking us  to sell it separately. The sale price for everything is $45,000.  We are removing tanning bed services from our business and focusing on the core of our business, which is hair services. We are currently dividing and downsizing our hair and tanning salon into two separate businesses.  The tanning salon side of our current business is divided from the hair side and can be opened as a separate business.  An actual business name or business phone number is not for sale but the current location of the tanning can be opened as a separate tanning salon business.  Our business has outgrown our capabilities to manage both.  You will not be purchasing the hair salon. You will only be purchasing the complete set up and equipment and may open it as a separate tanning business.  The tanning equipment may remain where it is located and the building may be leased from the building owner.  This location is currently established as a tanning salon and we would recommend leaving it as such, but all equipment may be moved, if desired.  We will provide, for  free, the tanning client records, a list of vendor contact information, promotional strategies and secrets of the trade at the time of the sale.

Location/Facility: 1 Mile north of Gulfport, MS.
