This RV training academy represents a rare opportunity to acquire the dominant market leader in a recession-proof, high-demand niche with explosive growth potential, substantial regulatory barriers to entry, and multiple expansion pathways already underway. Established in 2017, the company operates as the largest RV technical training provider in North America, serving an industry experiencing acute technician and inspector shortages driven by record RV sales over the past decade. The business benefits from significant barriers to entry, including state Workforce Commission licensing with mandatory annual audits, VA program approval for veteran benefits, operational real estate, and specialized infrastructure and equipment requirements that competitors cannot easily replicate. No other training facility provides premium classroom and hands-on training leading to industry certification.
The vertically integrated ecosystem generates $9.6M in revenue across multiple streams: core training programs (74%), their campus (12%), online courses (10%), and professional associations (4%). With their COO and seasoned department directors managing daily operations, the business delivers $2.8M in SDE while requiring minimal owner involvement from the 71-year-old founders.
Multiple growth catalysts position the business for expansion: satellite schools planned for Florida and Arizona, a Fort Hood military program leveraging VA approval, a rapidly scaling online platform, a new custom app ("Uber for RV Service") integration averaging over 100 daily service requests, expanding manufacturer partnerships, and ~70 acres available for rally and service center development beyond the current $50M revenue target.
The purchase price does NOT include the income-generating $6M in prime real estate available to be purchased, which is part and parcel to the operation. The founders are ready to retire and transition this turnkey operation to new ownership who can build on the foundation.
Key Benefits:
6,988 Annual Student Seat Capacity: Nearly 7,000 annual student seats provide significant expansion potential within existing infrastructure without additional facility investment.
Substantial Hard Assets: These include $1.75M in specialized training equipment for hands-on training. There's also $6M in prime, income-producing real estate available that's integral to the operation.
Diversified Revenue Streams: Reduce Risk Multiple income sources include tuition (74.4%), RV park rentals (12.0%), online courses (10.0%), and association memberships, creating operational stability.
Industry Shortage Creates Major Demand: The RV industry faces a major shortage of techs and inspectors due to record sales, ensuring sustained demand for RV technical training programs.
Regulatory Moats Protect Market Position: State Workforce Commission licensing with annual audits and VA approval creates substantial barriers preventing new competitors from entering the market.
