Overview

<p><b>Startup description</b></p><p>My product is a fully developed, production-ready UK multi-vendor fashion marketplace connecting shoppers with independent Pakistani, South Asian, Middle Eastern and modest-fashion boutiques.</p><p>The idea was to create a single premium destination where customers can discover products from multiple independent boutiques while sellers receive their own dedicated marketplace tools.</p><p>It has been developed as a complete platform rather than a landing page or prototype. It includes the customer marketplace, seller platform and administration system, with the core infrastructure required to operate a multi-vendor marketplace.</p><p><b>Key highlights:<b></b></b></p><ul> <li>Annual revenue: £100</li> <li>Annual profit: £91</li> <li>Churn: Not applicable yet</li> <li>LTV / CAC: Not yet measurable</li> <li>Marketplace commission: 10%</li> <li>Production-ready platform</li> <li>Custom multi-vendor architecture</li> <li>Stripe Connect integration</li> <li>Complete customer, seller and admin experiences</li> <li>Dedicated SEO and performance optimisation</li> <li>Responsive desktop and mobile design</li> </ul> <p><b>Team</b></p><p>Currently operated/developed by a small founder-led team.</p><p>The platform has been designed and developed across the frontend, backend, database, payments, seller infrastructure, administration, SEO, UX/UI and deployment.</p><p>The buyer would acquire the completed platform and could continue development independently or with their own development team.</p><p><b>Tech Stack</b></p><ul> <li>Next.js / React / TypeScript — customer and seller interfaces</li> <li>Node.js / NestJS — backend/API</li> <li>PostgreSQL / Prisma — database and data layer</li> <li>Stripe / Stripe Connect — marketplace payments and seller payouts</li> <li>Cloudflare R2 — product/media storage</li> <li>Next.js image optimisation — responsive image delivery and performance</li> <li>Modern SEO, structured data and responsive architecture.</li> </ul> <p><b>Marketing and growth</b></p><p>There is currently no established marketing history.</p><p>The platform has instead been prepared for launch, including technical SEO, structured data, metadata, image optimisation, performance improvements, responsive UX and a fully populated launch catalogue.</p><p>The next owner can take the existing production-ready platform and focus on acquiring boutiques and customers.</p><p><b>Revenue and profit</b></p><p>The hosting cost is 7.99$ p/m and 5$ annual for the domain.</p><p>The marketplace is designed around a 10% commission model, with the platform processing customer payments and sellers receiving funds through Stripe Connect.</p><p>This provides a clear monetisation model that can be activated as boutiques and customers are onboarded.</p><p><b>Return on investment</b></p><p>The primary value for the buyer is the development time and cost already invested.</p><p>Instead of starting a multi-vendor marketplace from zero, the buyer receives an existing production-ready foundation containing the customer marketplace, seller infrastructure, admin system, payment architecture, catalogue, search, checkout, order management and responsive UI.</p><p>The buyer's main investment after acquisition would therefore shift from building the technology to launching, marketing and growing the marketplace.</p><p><b>Startup assets<b></b></b></p><ul> <li>The domain</li> <li>The brand and visual identity</li> <li>Complete production-ready codebase</li> <li>Customer marketplace</li> <li>Seller dashboard</li> <li>Admin platform</li> <li>Multi-vendor marketplace infrastructure</li> <li>Product catalogue/taxonomy system</li> <li>Boutique storefront system</li> <li>Search and filtering</li> <li>Customer accounts and wishlist</li> <li>Shopping bag and checkout</li> <li>Seller onboarding</li> <li>Listing management</li> <li>Order management</li> <li>Stripe Connect integration</li> <li>Purchase Protection functionality</li> <li>Email infrastructure/flows</li> <li>SEO implementation</li> <li>Responsive desktop/mobile UI</li> </ul> <p><b>Risks</b></p><p>There is no risk. The technology itself is already built, reducing the technical risk and development time associated with starting from scratch.</p><p><b>Summary</b></p><p>My platform is an opportunity to acquire a complete, production-ready multi-vendor marketplace rather than an idea, prototype or basic website.</p><p>The difficult technical foundation has already been built across the customer experience, seller platform, administration, payments, catalogue, search, checkout, orders, SEO and responsive design.</p><p>The marketplace is intentionally positioned within the growing South Asian, Middle Eastern and modest-fashion space, but the underlying technology provides a foundation that can be further developed and expanded.</p><p>✅ $100 TTM revenue</p><p>✅ 100 customers</p><p>✅ Business model: Commission</p><p>✅ Built with TypeScript, Stripe, Node.js,</p>

Asking Price Reasoning

The asking price reflects the substantial custom technology and infrastructure already developed. The product includes a complete customer marketplace, multi-vendor seller platform, admin system, payment infrastructure, onboarding, catalogue, search, and checkout.

Reason for Selling

The product has been fully developed into a production-ready marketplace, and I am looking to pass it to a buyer who can take the platform to market, onboard sellers and scale the business commercially.

Growth Opportunity

The opportunity is to establish this platform as a specialist destination for cultural and modest fashion, starting in the UK and expanding the boutique and customer base over time. Growth can come through boutique acquisition, SEO, social media.
