Well-established nursery with loyal wholesale customers — Areca Palms, Citrus, & Tropical Landscape Plants


Nursery business available! Successful nursery business on Hawaii Island with 19-year history available from semi-retired owner. After cultivating a fine reputation with customers and vendors, owner has a stable, reliable demand from long-term, loyal customers including several large retailers.

Potential for Expansion: The nursery wholesales plant and foliage stock primarily to Hawaii Island customers. Demand far outstrips supply on Hawaii Island, and on all other islands in Hawaii. So, this is a solid, growth-potential business ready for an ambitious buyer who may even aspire to expand from wholesale into full retail activity! Owners draw a salary from the nursery currently located on the Kona side.

Tropical plant inventory, supplies, equipment, customer base, contacts, & established informal relationships with vendors and customers comprise the business. A truly aloha-based enterprise. Inventory consists of 1, 3-, 5-, 7-, and 15-gallon palms supplied to large retailers. To recreate the current stock level growing on one acre would take 5-6 years to accrue. Land is lease-hold property which is not transferable and NOT included. New owner must transfer inventory, equipment, and supplies to a new property anywhere on the island and will be given time allowance to obtain a suitable property. This is an eminently relocatable and active enterprise and the perfect business if you have some land and want to take advantage of the Ag Tax incentive. If you can set up on the Hilo side you may cut down on water cost.

To support the successful transfer of ownership, current owner is willing to provide training and assistance to ensure a smooth transition. Here’s your opportunity to “grow” a palm and tropical plant business with an abundance of potential — from the ground up!
