Greater LA Area Film & Commercial Production Studio For Sale

Business description

This unique opportunity is unlike any other on the market, or perhaps any other in existence. This enormous film and television commercial studio, lighting and equipment rental house, and much more, boasts enough stages and equipment to simultaneously manage several productions of any size. The studio, which has developed over a decade of goodwill with top name clients, also offers its acquirer an instant foothold in a unique and highly profitable market niche that competing venues cannot offer. The sale includes all of the company’s significant assets including its furniture, fixtures, equipment and vehicle inventory (valued at over $850,000), client base and tremendous goodwill. The business has highly trained and competent staff who manages each aspect of the business while the owner spends his time on several of his own film productions and alternate business ventures. As such, despite its size this may be considered a semi-absentee run operation.
