Business description
Based in a prime location in the Mediterranean, this Yacht Charter Company and RYA Training Centre has been established and in the same ownership for over 10 years.
The business is well known, has an excellent reputation, is profitable and growing, with a 70 percent increase in business over the 2008 season along with increased profit margins.
The company has top positioning on the search engines without the need to pay for optimisation services or for paid web based advertisements.
The Brand recognition is strong and has been achieved by word of mouth and recommendation, print advertising, editorial in major publications and some television exposure.
The business is relocatable but this would not necessarily be a sensible strategy, although further bases are worth considering once you are settled into the business.
Years established: 10
Employees: 2
Trading hours: Varried
Home based: This business can be run from home.
Relocatable: This business can be relocated.
Property: Freehold
Living accomodation
Subject to agreement, it may be possible to rent a four bedroom/three bathroom house with pool and for €2000 per month. The business can also be run from here successfully should you wish to do so.
Location
Mediterranean
Expansion potential
The business is currently working close to capacity and can be easily taken to the next level in growth. The company is medium sized at present, however,if you wish to be at the helm of a larger company and benefit from the commensurate increase in profitability, this would be easily achieved.
Competition / Market
It is a competitive market but not particularly innovative and so, with a little imagination, it does not take too much to stay ahead of the crowd.
Support & training
2 weeks of training and support would be provided within the price, with the possibility to purchase further weeks.
Reasons for selling
Retirement
