Marine Construction Company That Can't Keep Up With Demand For Sale

Business description

This marine construction company is located in SE Wisconsin and is situated near numerous lakes. For 12 years they have been providing area lake homeowners with quality Spring and Fall pier and boatlift installation and removal, as well as building new piers and installing boulder shorelines during the summer months. The company owns and operates a barge which they haul to many area lakes to complete their work. The use of the barge allows them access to the lakefront without using the customer's land, which is important when hauling materials so they do not damage properties. The owner has only worked the business part time because of another career, but it could easily be grown into a full time business with some marketing and expanding into other lakes in the area. Right now word of mouth is the only marketing tool. Truck, barge, trailer, tools, and current customer list is included in sale.

Property information

Location:

This business is located southeast Wisconsin, a great location for this type of business because of the many lakes and the above average net worth of owners who travel to their lake homes from Milwaukee and Chicago.

Other information

Expansion potential:

Great company reputation that has immediate opportunities for growth to become a full time career for a new owner. Due to the limited hours present owner has available to work because of his primary career, he ofen has to turn away requests for his services. This is a great indicator of the possible growth this company could see immediately. The company could easily promote the new construction of piers and seawalls during the summer months which will only grow the customer database for seasonal installs and removals. This could easly become a full time operation for the new owner with the right promotion. (Present owner works only weekends during the Fall and Spring months but full time during Summer)

Competition / Market:

There are so many lakefront properties in the area that other marine construction companies can also exist without having any shortage of work to go around.

Support & training:

TBD

Trading hours:

Part time Fall Spring, Full Time Summer
