Business description
Turner Butler is delighted to be appointed sole selling agents for this company, which has never been brought to the market for sale before.

This sale represents a unique opportunity to acquire a very dynamic and profitable business that specialises in individually purpose designed promotional display material for an enviable client base of household name blue chip companies.

Established in 2001 but incorporating experience spanning over 20 years, this business prides itself on using the latest software technology to create innovative and high impact design concepts for each client. This gives it a clear competitive edge in a market with few competitors; and this is evident through its recommendation by word of mouth and repeat business.

The compact size of the business has allowed it to retain a personal touch, and this is capitalised on by building solid, customer-focused relationships. As a result, the business has perfected its approach to combine creative design with cost efficiency.

The business is fully operational, and a new purchaser will acquire it on a complete turnkey basis.

This sale represents an excellent opportunity for one of the larger POS manufacturers specialising in other market areas, and seeing this offering as a suitable opportunity to gain a ready made base in a further lucrative sector. As this business is fully relocatable it lends itself perfectly to be purchased as a value added bolt on to a larger operation.

Customer Service:

Customer service is paramount and at the centre of the company’s approach to doing business. As a result, the business has earned a very good reputation for its original solutions and delivering projects on time, and within budget.

Years established: 2001

Employees: The business employs 4 full time and one part time staff including the two Directors.

Trading hours: Monday-Friday: 9.00-5.30

Relocatable: This business can be relocated.

Property: Leasehold


Lease terms
A new lease is available to the new owner if required, with rental costs being circa £26,500 per annum and rates being £14,000 per annum payable.

Location
The business currently operates from two floors of a fully serviced and very modern office building (circa 2000sq. ft.) on a Business Park of similar properties with more than ample parking facilities.

A new lease is available to the new owner if required, with rental costs being circa £26,500 per annum and rates being £14,000 per annum payable.

Expansion potential
This business has been very well managed and resourced and now provides an excellent stable platform to develop in to the future. As a fully relocatable, turnkey business the possibilities are endless to expand this business outside of its current market sector and into other multinational point of sale opportunities. The current owner believes that an ideal purchaser would be a business with expertise in point of sale in other sectors. The enterprise would be an ideal bolt-on for a purchaser already involved in other areas of marketing, say, the FMCG sector.

Competition / Market
This company generates new business from trade awareness of its reputation and products, and the finest form of marketing: word of mouth recommendation. These methods are used to maintain strong customer rapport to gain that all important repeat business. If a buyer were to optimise additional marketing methods with this business, this would represent an excellent opportunity for growth and expanding the existing client base.

Support & training
All necessary support for handover and training will be provided by the current Directors as part of a successful sale package.
