Business description
The sale of this business presents a rare opportunity to acquire an extremely well organised and highly successful business. Established by our clients in 1995 there is genuine and demonstrable scope for substantial growth of the business.
The Company offers a range of groundwork services to the construction industry, with the majority of its work being carried out on new housing development.
Foundations, roads, and all services can be carried out to a high specification, within budget and on schedule.
Through its trading history, this Company is the preferred supplier of large house building companies, and as such has substantial work in progress and are as busy as they choose to be so are currently turning large amounts of work away. A strong indication on the quality of works provided.
The Company has previously invested all its efforts in the Oxfordshire area, but is now ideally poised to fulfil contracts and bid for tender in other key geographic areas.
Employees: The Company has in place a sound management structure, which means that the business does not depend on the Owners involvement on a day-to-day basis.

By using any of the above mediums, the business could dramatically increase its presence, turnover and bottom line. Support & training
Owners agree to a reasonable transition period and are willing to offer their full support to the new owners. Reasons for selling
