Birmingham Shop Fitting Joinery Specialists With Huge Potential For Sale

Business description

Advent Business Sales is pleased to have been instructed to offer to the market this very well established and profitable joinery business.

Founded over 12 years ago by the vendor, the business is only now being reluctantly offered for sale as he wishes to pursue an alternative unrelated business venture.

The business specialises in shop fittings with a large portion of its work received from a single blue chip customer. It also makes kitchen units, wardrobes, shop counters and many other items with regular work from builders, architects as well as the general public with customers spread nationwide.

The vendor works alone in the business with the assistance of his wife who works part time for approximately 10 hours per week on general office work and book keeping. In the period to March 2010 the business achieved net annual sales of circa £250,000 with a net profit of approximately £60,000.

The business is fully equipped for purpose and includes:
• Panel saw
• Up and over planer
• Spindle
• Pillar drill
• Morticer
• Rip saw
• Various hand tools
• Joinery work bench
• Site safety equipment

The business would be an excellent acquisition for an experienced person already working in the joinery trade, who is looking to run a business for the first time or as a ‘bolt on’ for an existing business looking to expand into the area or into new markets.

We are advised that stock at cost is approximately £500.
