Business description
The business was established by our client in 1992 and specialises in the design, manufacture and installation of aluminium windows, doors and shop fronts. Mainly commercial and local authority customers are accommodated, with the business boasting an impressive client base and portfolio of work. The business has been gently traded by choice offering considerable scope to increase trade; the business is almost unopposed in the region. The aluminium market is mainly commercial with occasional private work, especially for listed and historic properties, of which there are a number in the trading area. The sale presents an opportunity to acquire a highly regarded and successful business; an ideal ‘bolt-on’ for an existing window fitter or property maintenance company looking to diversify. Our client is offering generous hand over terms and on-going support to a new owner. Viewing is strongly recommended
