House Gems is all about 'Sustainability and Affordability with Quality and Style'
HG sources stylish pre-loved (and ex-Show Home) seats and gives them a second chance to shine by fully inspecting and professionally cleaning Gems so they are 'as good as new'.
House Gems is about extending their lives... decreasing the need for new items... reducing the carbon footprint... yet still allowing you all to have an affordable, sustainable, stylish and fabulous home.
PRE-loved
RE-loved
BE-loved
So there you go.... HG explained
We run this lifestyle business from a small unit in Huntingdon, cleaning our pre-loved sofas with a professional cleaning machine using chemicals and water. We take pictures of these sofas, as you can see using an iPhone and upload them to Facebook marketplace for free.
We communicate via messenger, send invoices via Quickbooks and work around 20 hours a week.
This business could easily be scaled up, and it has proved to be recession-proof and has no quiet months like traditional businesses. There is zero debt as we have bootstrapped it from Day one.
This business has been building gradually for over three years and maintains consistent sales and profits.
We would create a complete training pack to enable any buyer to learn everything from sourcing to delivery, how to clean the sofas and chairs, how to take outstanding pictures and edit them, copywriting that sells and customer service.
This business would suit someone who wants a lifestyle business to suit their own hours, an existing upholstery and carpet cleaning company that wants to bolt on additional revenue and profit or someone who wants to scale a business fast.
There is no lack of stock availability and high demand.
We have over 3000 followers on Facebook and are currently compiling an email database to allow communication this way.
The website was built and could easily be converted into a Shopify website to allow full e-commerce selling.
We use couriers to deliver via the Shipley website and often hire a van to deliver and collect sofas at the same time to maximise van hire and diesel costs.
We are happy to answer and questions and are looking for £30,000 for all stock, equipment, six month old Apple MAC, chemicals, website, goodwill and contacts.
