Paper And Printing Store In Pretoria For Sale

Business description

This business sells small print work and exclusive items going with that, on very lucrative profit margins. The owner visits the shop once a month or every second month for a couple of days at a time. He does stay in touch via phone, e-mail and Skype. He also monitors the shop through a surveillance camera system by means of an ADSL connection on his computer. The staff members are fully trained and are well versed in all the business activities, including producing what the customers require. The shopping centre trading hours also make it easy for customers to come and discuss their needs at leisure outside official working hours. As can be clearly seen at the moment, it is not necessary for the new owner to be at the shop all the time, but in the same breath it is definitely desirable for the owner to spend more time at the business than what is spend at the moment.
EVERY NOW AND THEN ONE COMES BY, A GOOD BUSINESS AT AN EXCELLENT PRICE!! THIS IS ONE OF THEM!
Potential for Growth: Should the new owner spend more time at the business, it will not only improve sales, but also the profit margins because of tighter controls and supervision. Apart from word of mouth, no advertising takes place. There is also room for additional printing work like flyers etc, but because of the logistical problem, none of these are being done. The existing owner also supplies other products out of his Cape outlets with good results, which can be introduced here as well.
Special Requirements for buyer:People skills are important. Being arty can help, but not a prerequisite, because customers choose from catalogues and programmes, which then produce the required product. The new owner doesn’t need to have previous experience in this field.
