Ford’s Department Store is a 75-year Bitterroot Valley institution. The business includes an active retail operation with experienced staff, an established point-of-sale system, and an estimated $700,000 in retail inventory (at retail value). Fixtures and equipment are included. Notably, ownership is continuing to operate and actively replenish inventory through the transition — the business will transfer to a new owner as a fully stocked, going-concern operation. The current ownership has been deliberate stewards of this community legacy. The sellers' preference is to find a buyer who recognizes the value of what has been built and continue its legacy. Buyer inquiries are subject to execution of a Non-Disclosure Agreement. Additional financial documentation, and operational detail will be provided upon NDA completion. Commercial Flexibility The ground floor footprint — with its high ceilings, wide open layout, and established loading and access — accommodates an enormous range of retail, hospitality, office, or mixed-use concepts. Downtown Hamilton's growing foot traffic and tourism profile make this a particularly attractive destination address & business. Hamilton is the county seat of Ravalli County and the commercial hub of the Bitterroot Valley — one of Montana's fastest-growing regions. With strong in-migration, a thriving outdoor recreation economy, and a tight inventory of quality commercial properties, Hamilton presents a compelling long-term investment environment. • Growing population base with strong local and regional retail demand • Significant tourism draw from fly fishing, hunting, hiking, and the Bitterroot River corridor • Limited quality commercial inventory in the downtown core — this offering is genuinely rare • Proximity to Missoula (approximately 45 miles north) with easy access to a regional employment and amenity base What's Included: Business Only Ford's inventory, fixtures, POS, goodwill, staff transition & vendor contacts and history $499,900 Buildings are offered in MLS # 30073930 or # 30073742 with business.
