All you require to run the company is a suitable storage space (we currently occupy a storage shed approx. 4m x 20m). The business can be run entirely by one person, with bookings taken all year round, and the majority of deliveries carried out in the summer months, leaving the winter months relatively quiet for you.
This is a great opportunity to buy a fully functioning, profitable and proven business, with bookings in place for this year and next.
I'm only selling now as my growing family demands more time than I can currently give them running this business and another separate business. It's time for me to move on, but it will be a very reluctant sale as I built this business from scratch, and have poured my heart and soul into making it a success.
Financials and further details can be seen by interested persons on request.
