Business for Sale Overview:
Turner Butler are delighted to be appointed as sole selling agents for this exciting business opportunity.
This extremely well established business has been run using the daily expertise of its owner since 1966, growing an extremely wide variety of trees, conifers and other forms of hedging plants. The owner now wishes to retire, and has used the recent years to grow on more stock whilst choosing to sell less to his traditional wholesale customer base, although the business has always provided the usual direct ownership benefits. Therefore the owner has chosen to sell the business for a price which is deemed to be far less than the value of the stock and assets alone, to facilitate a smooth uncomplicated sale.
By fully utilizing the business’ low overhead gearing the company has been successful over the years by providing his customers with an extremely wide selection of produce at attractive market prices.
The company operates from four rented sites totaling circa 20+ acres, and by pricing the business based on asset and stock value, the owner is giving the new owner a great opportunity for rapid return of investment.
A further benefit to the new owner is the current owner’s willingness to be retained, should the new owner wish, for a period of time (to be negotiated separately). This would help to provide a seamless transition between ownerships.
The current owner would also be interested to speak with potential partners who would contribute to the workload that he now wishes to step back from, and is thereby adding even more flexibility to this attractive package.
