Potential
Growth/Expansion:
Even though the business is well established there are significant opportunities to expand. The company does not employ any dedicated regional field sales representatives. The owners have only recently started to actively market on websites and digital platforms (Google, Gumtree, and EBay etc.) But there are significant growth opportunities in this area.
There is huge demand for good quality used office furniture and there are a number of larger tender opportunities with local authorities and educational establishments to secure further longer term contracts.
This is an ideal opportunity for an additional bolt on to an existing office furniture company or as a stand alone investment. |

Competition:
The business has historically relied on repeat business and a large percentage of turnover is from existing clients. The owners have recently invested funds into a dedicated website and employed marketing agents to drive website traffic to their site through Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) and Pay Per Click (PPC) advertising through Google. This has started to produce impressive results but could be developed further by a new owner. |
