You find a business that works for you, you buy it.
Wholesale & Distribution businesses are a sought after acquisition and will continue to get good returns if the key things are in place such as agreements and distribution channels. This opportunity has these key features in place and has had for over 10 years, so the security is strong and the product is something that is known Australia wide.
The current owner has streamlined the business and currently works no more than 14 hours on average per week. A very high percentage of orders come through e-mail and are packed and sent off straight away. The bigger orders come through via e-mail but are forwarded to the manufacturer and sent away from there and the owner does not even see the product. The owner has arranged rebate deals with his larger clients so they will not find the product at a better rate anywhere.
The owner spends approximately 5 days on the road every 5-6 weeks so the time away is minimal. This is certainly an area of growth if a new operator wanted to spend more time on the road cold calling or servicing some of the smaller clients, you could increase the turnover. 14 hours per week enables the owner to have other work and enjoy life while earning a strong income after all outgoings are paid for.
This is well worth a look and being Wholesale & Distribution it will get strong enquiry.
