Facilities
This nearly 10,000 square foot facility can be leased for $10,000 per month plus $2,000 in monthly triple net (NNN) expenses on a new lease with term and options to be negotiated. Alternately, the seller owned property may be purchased separately for $3.2 million. All of the company’s furniture, fixtures, equipment and 35 years of goodwill will be included in the sale. An estimated $100,000 in inventory will be sold at cost.
Competition
This is an industry where historical reputation and crew performance speak volumes and determine a firm’s credibility. As this is a well-established incumbent enterprise with no key crew members, this company’s goodwill and lengthy client list and end-user customer base provide it a distinct advantage that an industry entrant or smaller firm would find difficult to compete with.
Growth & Expansion
New operators may grow the business in several ways, which could already be accomplished in the existing facility, without the addition of capacity. Since the firm has concentrated on clients within a 10 – 20 mile radius, new management may target prospects beyond the historic territory. Similarly, since 40% – 50% of packaging products are drop shipped, sales efforts could be concentrated on this category without material capacity or staffing impact. Finally, the company has a line a janitorial, cleaning and safety products that they offer, however these have not been a focus since they represent a minority of overall sales. Efforts may be bolstered in these categories.
Support & Training
Seller will train for 2 weeks at 25 hours per week or as negotiated
