I recently came across a listing announcing the sale of a downtown Asheville cycling business. I’m assuming it is Hearn’s Cycling & Fitness bicycle shop. The announcement says the business, founded in 1896, is the longest continuous business in Asheville. The asking price is $400,000.
Here’s more:
Located in beautiful Asheville, North Carolina, this business was founded in 1896 and is the longest continuous company in Asheville. It provides sales, service, parts of bicycles with a special niche in the buying and selling of preowned bicycles. It is located in a 5,000 foot facility in downtown Asheville. The current owner has doubled the sales in the last 6 years of his ownership. It is a perfect opportunity for someone or a couple who love the mountains, enjoy helping people by providing products and services that add to the health of their clients through exercise, is green, and makes money.
