Budget estimate

$150,000 – $300,000

The FY 2026 sales reported for the existing operation are about $1.13 million. The contract’s financial model includes a commission structure plus a Minimum Annual Guarantee (MAG) that can be up to $175 k in the first year. Assuming a typical commission rate of 10‑15 % on gross sales, the vendor’s annual revenue could range from roughly $110 k (if sales are lower) to $250 k (if sales meet or exceed current levels). Over the initial one‑year term, the expected earnings are therefore in the low‑hundreds‑of‑thousands dollars range.
