BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
Design, Supply, Domestic & Commercial Scaffolding Erectors and Hire Company
Ref.GB149
Location Barnsley, South Yorkshire
Asking Price £ 120,000
This is an excellent opportunity to acquire a successful scaffolding company which was established in 1984 and has been run profitably by the current owner for the past four years. They have regular repeat customers within the local area and are never without work with many customers using their services on a daily basis.
The business runs from a circa ¼ acre site in Barnsley with continual work in progress.There are large amounts of scaffolding and platforms for any any emergency or last minute jobs which regularly appear. They have a small fleet of vehicles which are fully kitted out with equipment and are managed by a small team of experienced scaffolders and labourers.
The business is easy to run, works on low overheads and is profitable. This would be a perfect starter business for someone who wants to begin their own business in the scaffolding industry or for another scaffolding company to take over all of their existing work, order book, customers, vehicles and equipment and automatically expand their own business
Expansion Potential
There is huge potential to grow this company further. The business has never seen the need to advertise. A new owner with fresh enthusiasm and energy could easily increase the turnover and broaden the services of the company simply by marketing the company within the local area.
