Business description
Retirement sale of immensely successful blind manufacturers, suppliers and installers with further potential for growth.
This successful and profitable business, manufactures, wholesales and installs a wide range of bespoke curtains and blinds, including wooden, roller, vertical, venetian, roman, skylight and plantation blinds.
The extensive, loyal client base is split between domestic, commercial and public sector customers and the ever increasing workload is enhanced by repeat business and word of mouth referrals as the company name has become synonymous with quality product and superior service.
The owner who has 25 years experience in this trade moved the business to its current location three years ago with just two other staff and has grown the business dramatically in that time into the thriving operation it is today. The uncompromising quality of its products combined with the fantastic range they carry and the warm yet professional service has established them as the premier supplier in the area.

Other information
- Expansion potential:
- There are many further areas in which the business could expand. An increase in business could be obtained by employing sales representatives or agents. A sales force would have a fantastic opportunity to increase turnover.
Another complimentary area for diversification would be the supply of awnings (static and retractable, canopies etc.)
Also the owner would readily admit that the company website is not as effective as it could be and, together with the e-commerce facilities that exist, could be utilised to create substantial revenue and a mail order business in its own right.
Attention to the above, coupled with a more aggressive marketing policy could result in an even more lucrative business, in a very short period of time, for nominal effort or extra outlay.
