We're Planning Our Retirement!
But we need to find the next great Wild Birds Unlimited store owner first!
We're not getting any younger and have made the decision to retire, right AFTER we have found a perfect new owner for our shop.
We want all of my wonderful and faithful customers and friends to know these four things:
- We are NOT going out of business.
- We will be here for you and continue to operate our shop until we find the right buyer for it.
- We are going to find the best buyer we can, who will love you and the birds and the business as we have over the past 21 years.
- Only after that will we retire, even if it takes a little while!
How you can help?
You can help us by sharing this news and telling friends, family, or acquaintances who might be looking to own their own business, and who would love sharing a passion for the birds. Our store is an established, successful, and profitable business that has a great staff and vendors in place, in a brand with an excellent track record, and with a large and loyal customer base.
We have LOVED owning this store and getting the chance to meet all of you while sharing our love of the birds. But we all reach new phases in our lives and we want to get the wheels turning to start our retirement years. We hope to travel some, but we also just want more time to enjoy the birds right in our own yard.
If you know anyone who would like to:
- Turn a hobby into a business
- Feel pride in running a local business which is engaged in the community and employs local people
- Gain satisfaction from providing creative and educational opportunities for faithful customers
- Experience joy from bringing people and nature together
- Work for themselves with flexible hours and have fun at the same time
Please share this information with them! Then tell them to contact us at the store at [email protected].
Thank you again for all your support and participation in such a wonderful hobby. Happy Birding!
Karen & Dave Hughes,
Owners, Wild Birds Unlimited of Niantic
