Annual sales are around $2.5m +GST per annum, and the business has $700k of confirmed forward work and continuing enquiries through very strong relationships with clients, builders, developers, designers and architects. The owner is very seldom 'on the tools' with his focus being sales and business development.

  • Qualified and happy staff; excellent team culture;low staff turnover

The Buyer/Seller

Our vendor is looking to slow down and enjoy some 'own time' in semi retirement, albeit all support will be provided for a new owner. Transition will be considerably eased by key senior staff and good support systems within the business. The new owner will be an experienced business professional, with the ability to maintain relationships with staff, customers and suppliers. Joinery experience or exposure to a design, measure and quote environment and/or a manufacturing background would be useful.
