Blind And Curtain Manufacturer In North Lincolnshire For Sale

Business description

Preferred Commercial is pleased to offer for sale this busy blind and curtain manufacturer, which was established by our client in 1983 and which is only now presented to the market due to our client's wish to retire. The business is well-equipped with a wide range of equipment including an industrial sewing machine and a fully automatic micro louvre blind cutting and punching machine. Our client provides a bespoke measuring and fitting service for both residential and commercial customers. Along with vertical and venetian blinds, our client supplies roman blinds and conservatory blinds. There is a web site in place containing information about the available services, location and contact details. The business is currently run at a pace to suit our client and generates a turnover in the region of £90,000 per annum with a gross profit of 55%. We feel the business could be easily run at the current pace and turnover could be further improved by extending the range of products and services available. Establishing external blind manufacture, shutter installation and glass filming are all potential areas for expansion. Early contact with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
