Architectural Metal and glass work business located on the Fraser Coast in Queensland Coastal City
This Queensland based business is located four hours north of Brisbane in a large coastal city. The business designs, fabricates and installs architectural metal and glass work, working primarily with aluminium, stainless steel, mild steel and glass.\r\nThe current owner has 15 years’ experience as an industrial engineer and established this business seven years ago after identifying a gap in the market. Licensed to work in both Queensland and New South Wales, the business turns over approximately\r\n$1.4 million annually undertaking work in Queensland.\r\nWhile there is some local competition in the industry, this company has built up a solid reputation for quality work and an excellent ‘can do’ attitude. The business services both commercial and residential clients; however the vast majority of work (approximately 80-90%) is undertaken for commercial projects.\r\nSpecifically this business undertakes a variety of architectural exterior features such as balconies, screening and stairs, mostly for commercial projects such as shopping centres, hospitals, office and residential high-rise buildings.\r\nThe workflow systems of the business have been streamlined for maximum productivity and safety, employing a mix of seven skilled industry staff and qualified welders. Ideally, the new owners would possess relevant industry experience or the skills to co-ordinate, facilitate and project manage the business. The current owner has indicated he is available for a flexible handover to ensure a smooth transition.\r\nMost work comes into the business from repeat clients and referrals. This leaves new owners room to grow the business by actively marketing. There is also a separate registered business included in the asking price, a Stainless and Aluminium Supplies concern providing an additional revenue stream and enhancing the competiveness of the business.\r\nThe business premises include a 500 square metre factory with three offices plus a meeting room set on 1,300 square metres of ground. There is an option to purchase the freehold title of the property; alternatively a reasonable lease can be arranged.\r\nLocated on Queensland’s coast, new owners can expect to enjoy the best of Australian outdoor living, plus the amenities of a city and an excellent, sub-tropical climate.\r\n\r\nAsking price: $750,000 + SAV +\r\nFreehold optional\r\n
