Business profile:
This very well established and successful commercial sales and service business has been trading in the region for well over 50 years. The company has built up a sterling reputation in the county and a loyal blue chip commercial customer base who appreciate the high quality industrial equipment the company supplies.

The company supplies and services industrial, commercial and domestic vacuums, polishers, steam cleaners, sweepers and scrubber dryers, as well as standard domestic appliances (on a B2B basis). It has excellent supply agreements with major manufacturers including Nilfisk and Numatic. Approximately 66% of sales are for cleaning/vacuum machines with the remainder of sales being domestic type appliances that are sold on a commercial basis to its business customers. The business also does a very small bit of retail (more due to the fact that the business is located in the town centre but this could be easily expanded should a new owner wish to pursue further).

The business has two core revenue streams. Approximately 50% of revenues are via sales of the machines and the other 50% is via ongoing serving and maintenance of such machines. The business has two fully equipped vans that enable it to service and maintain customers equipment efficiently and professionally.
