 |
 |
Established 15 years in Yorkshire, this business is relocatable,very profitable and can be run from home. Turnover in 2008 will be in the region of £400,000 at a gross margin of 58%.
The Company trades nationally with emphasis in the south east and has a blue chip client base with 20-25% repeat/referral business each year.
The product is represented by a high quality 12 page colour brochure,DVD presentation disc and an excellent website. The general image, advertising proposals and brand is first class. The premier product area is in bespoke fitted home study/office furniture. Clients are mostly business principals, professionals, academics and retirees in a high income bracket.
Manufacturing is outsourced and reliably produced to a precise standard and specification.
The ideal purchaser should have direct sales experience and/or experience in furniture design/planning. A cabinet manufacturer with quality standards and a good marketing mind would discover this as a perfect product opportunity in an expanding area of the furniture industry.
The owner is retiring but is willing to retain a shareholding initially and provide transition assistance for a limited time.
