But there's a catch—its supply chain is deeply tied to China, and new tariff policies may render the business nearly untransactable. The hosts explore what makes the brand compelling, how SBA financing applies (even with a potential carve-out), and the real-world impact of uncertain global trade conditions on e-commerce sellers today. They also dive into new SBA SOP updates and creative (and sometimes sketchy) ways sellers are dodging tariffs.🔑 Key Highlights:$10M revenue / $2.5M EBITDA Amazon FBA business selling advanced filtration showerheads40–50% of revenue is recurring via cartridge replacementsNew SBA lending SOP may open doors for carve-outsDeep dive into how tariffs (up to 200%) are freezing e-commerce dealsOnshoring vs. offshoring and the real limitations for US manufacturingThe risk of platform dependence (100% Amazon sales)Insights into how importers are attempting to dodge tariffs with DDP shipping and false declarationsThe challenge of pricing a deal in high-uncertainty environmentsSubscribe to  weekly our Newsletter and get curated deals in your inboxAdvertise with us by clicking hereDo you love Acquanon and want to see our smiling faces?
