Business for Sale Overview:
This unique and growing business was established in 2004 by an Australian Husband and Wife team to import specifically Natural products to the U.K. Representing some well known and established brands, the company has built excellent relationships with a number of manufacturers in Australia, and a large client base in the U.K.
From inception, the company has only concentrated on representing natural products, with the highest quality standards. They currently have a contract to import a range of creams, shampoos and conditioners by a well-known manufacturer. These products focus on delivering to clients who have sensitive skin, or skin conditions which may usually require prescription creams. They have passed stringent tests, and are fully approved for sale in the U.K. Free of chemicals, additives and irritants, with a non-greasy feel and application these skin-care products offer a real alternative for customers, with little direct competition in the U.K.
Over the years, the business has trialed a number of different product ranges, but has reduced this to the most profitable. Due to their ongoing success, they are receiving a stream of enquires each week from other Australian manufactures looking for U.K. representation. This represents great opportunities for future growth.
The company distributes the skincare products direct to independent healthcare shops, wholesalers and direct via the website. They are currently in negotiations with some national retail outlets. The sales have continued to grow from continuous repeat orders.
Offering natural products only, being price competitive, and being friendly and flexible at all times in their approach to service, the company has carved out a fantastic ongoing business with exceptional potential.
