In Tyler, Texas on June 8, 2006, at my age of 77, we opened Pets and Friends, LLC, a full-line pet supply store, and Lose To Win, and a ladies fitness center. In November 2006, we added a unit of the U.S. Post Office known as a Contract Postal Unit (CPU). That same month, we added an open-to-the-public Pet Funeral Home And Crematory - the only one of its kind in all of East Texas.

The pet supply store, ladies fitness center and the post office are housed in a new 50’ x 80’ metal building with a covered front porch extending the full eighty feet across the front of the building.

The crematory, in the back adjoining the building, comprises 440 square feet and houses a state of the art Matthews Power Pac Crematory Unit designed specifically for the cremation of pets.

The business operation is situated on a full acre of land with 170 feet of frontage on a major state highway. In addition, there is an adjoining 4 acres available if needed.

It is situated one-half mile outside the Tyler city limits resulting in much lower taxes on both sales and property.

Our intent was to get the business up and running and sell the place in about two years. Because of the deteriorating economy, this did not appear feasible so we have continued to build the business.

The funeral home and crematory are extremely attractive and have enjoyed a steady growth pattern since opening.

This unique identity alone would pay all the expenses for the entire operations and still make a profit.

Because we feel the facility has such a tremendous potential for so many types of businesses, we would remove for credit either or both the fitness center equipment and the pet supply store inventory, leaving a clean span free-standing 4,000 square foot building up to a 5 acre parcel available.

The building has two separate heating and air-conditioning units and two fully ADA compliant restrooms. In addition, there is a break room with a range, refrigerator and dishwasher.

We are located on the northwest side of Tyler, Texas just one mile outside Loop 323 that encompasses the city. We are 15 minutes from Interstate 20 going between Dallas and Shreveport, Louisiana. In addition we are three minutes away from 5 banks, 8 eating establishments and a large retail center.

Finally, you find us just 4 minutes away from Tyler Pounds Regional Airport with many daily commuter flights.

If you would like to have a business in a small city with several colleges and some of the top medical facilities in the world, this is the place for you.

With the economy definitely on the mend, this business opportunity, at a reasonable price, will not be available for long.
