An exceptional opportunity awaits for someone passionate about natural health and wellness. Arcadia Natural Health & Gift Store, a beloved and long-standing boutique in the heart of Warkworth, is now on the market after 8 successful years under the current ownership. With over 30 years of local history, this well-regarded business enjoys a peaceful, welcoming atmosphere that draws frequent compliments from customers.
Located at the front of a popular arcade alongside other boutique retailers and a thriving café, Arcadia benefits from significant foot traffic and strong community support. It holds a solid reputation and loyal customer base, reflected in a database of over 1,800 clients and a monthly newsletter with more than 900 subscribers.
The store is currently operated with two part-time staff members who cover three days a week and occasional Saturdays. The owner is involved two days per week, also managing ordering and administration remotely. A fully functional point of sale system is in place, with the infrastructure and customer base ready for potential expansion into online sales.
Experience in naturopathy is not required. The current owner, though not a qualified naturopath, has a background in anatomy, physiology, office management, and accounting. She has offered to provide comprehensive training and transition support tailored to the new owner’s needs. A partially equipped practitioner room is also available with potential for income generation. The landlord supports its use for treatment or consultation services.
Arcadia holds exclusive distribution rights in Warkworth for premium product lines including Basilur & Tipson Organic Teas (also stocked at Smith & Caughey, Auckland) and Nirvana Eastern Import Company, known for its unique Turkish lamps, ceramics, and handcrafted stools. The store enjoys strong relationships with suppliers and representatives, who offer regular training and promotional deals—providing a competitive edge over traditional pharmacy offerings.
