Advent Business Sales is pleased to have been instructed to offer to the market this exceptionally well established and profitable double glazing and associated products business.
Founded by our vendor over 35 years ago, the business is only now being offered for sale to enable him to pursue an alternative unrelated business venture.
The business provides a high quality installation and construction service with no job being too big or too small.
It supplies conservatories, windows, doors, porches, fascia, soffits, cladding, guttering and even garage doors.
All items can be supplied in either UPVC, aluminium or hardwood and all installations carry a 10 years guarantee backed up by Homepro Insurance.
90% of turnover is to retail customers with the remaining 10% to local builders.
The business has an excellent reputation with a considerable amount of new work coming from word of mouth referrals from other satisfied customers.
The vendor works full time in the business with the assistance of a full time self employed fitter. In the year to 31st March 2010 they achieved net annual sales of £141,730 with a gross profit of £49,874 which together with a low overhead base results in very satisfactory net profits.
Sales are predominantly within Northamptonshire and the surrounding counties and are on a consistent basis.
We are advised that stock and work in progress at cost is approximately £14,000 at any one time.
The business is both Fensa and Part P approved. The sale price includes a Mercedes sprinter van and all the tools and equipment.
EXPANSION POTENTIAL
This is clearly already a successful business, it does however, still offer excellent scope to increase both sales and profits in the near term by:
1. Increasing the sales area covered
2. Employing commission only agents
3. Advertise more so not relying so much on Yellow Pages and the web
