Golden Lifestyle Opportunity: Wedding, Events & Equipment Hire Business on Waiheke Island Now for Sale!
Business opportunities that seamlessly blend lifestyle and profitability have never been more in demand, and Angie Flemming of LINK Business Brokers is delighted to present a particularly special venture. My Waiheke, a wedding, events, & equipment hire business, is officially for sale for the first time ever. “Seldom is such a desirable & genuinely exciting business offered to the open market,” Flemming states.
Founded in 2010 by proud vendors Sophia Hoadley & Steven Roigard, My Waiheke has earned a formidable reputation in the lucrative destination events market, and particularly in the weddings sector. This is an incredible opportunity to acquire a key player in a niche industry.
Boasting stunning natural beauty, picturesque landscapes, and enchanting beaches, Waiheke Island is a dream location for those seeking truly unforgettable weddings and events. The rise in demand for destination weddings has hugely benefitted the business, and it welcomes clients not just from all over New Zealand, but from around the world. “As the new owner of My Waiheke, you will tap into a thriving market and capitalise on the island’s popularity as a globally recognised wedding hotspot, so it really is a rare opportunity,” says Flemming.
Supported by a proven track record and robust systems, My Waiheke has built strong relationships with local vendors, ensuring access to the finest quality products and services. From elegant marquees and stylish furniture to exquisite floral arrangements, the business is well-equipped to meet the diverse needs of clients, regardless of preferences, scale, or budget. “My Waiheke proudly holds a reputation for being well-connected, passionate industry experts,” Hoadley says.
Not only will acquiring My Waiheke provide a new owner with a high-performing business that achieves consistent sales growth annually, but it also offers an enviable lifestyle opportunity. As the business is seasonal, new owners will enjoy exceptional work-life balance, downtime in an idyllic setting and the chance to work in one of the country’s most sought-after locations. Despite achieving so much success, My Waiheke is primed for even greater heights. A notable increase in demand for corporate events and private celebrations beyond just weddings sets the stage for diversified revenue streams. Further acknowledging the untapped growth opportunities that the business holds, Flemming states, “From targeting new market segments to advertising at local events, the potential for growth will depend entirely on what you choose to do. With My Waiheke you can design the future of your business.”
My Waiheke’s clientele is comprised of local & international markets alike, so it’s no surprise that the business’s brand awareness is stellar. At the heart of its efforts sits a sleek website, as well as strategically utilised social media platforms. My Waiheke’s weddings have even been featured in popular magazines, reflecting the business’s quality offerings. Additionally, positive word of mouth recommendations have also served the business well – a testament to My Waiheke’s commitment to client satisfaction.
This opportunity is well-suited to a range of potential buyers. “For driven, organised and entrepreneur-minded individuals eager to enter the dynamic industry of events, My Waiheke could not be more perfect,” Flemming says. Alternatively, a new owner may appoint an experienced manager to run the day-to-day. My Waiheke offers true flexibility.
“My Waiheke has been a significant piece of our lives for over a decade, and we’ve thoroughly enjoyed every moment, but we feel that it’s time to pursue other goals,” Roigard reflects. The current owners are willing to provide comprehensive training and support during the transition period, ensuring a smooth handover of operations. “Whether the lifestyle option of Waiheke Island beckons, or your entrepreneurial spirit desires a scalable business, My Waiheke certainly delivers! Now, the door is wide open for a lucky new owner to act fast and seize an opportunity like nothing else on the market right now,” Flemming emphasises. Priced reasonably at $465,000, this is an opportunity not to be missed!
