the present owners established this business in 1990, which specialises in the manufacturing and wholesale of professional fitness equipment, which it supplies to both the trade and direct to universities, sports clubs, schools and leisure centers. The business is also contracted to fully refurbish equipment for one of the uk’s largest gym supplier. This business has established itself as one of the uk’s leading own brand suppliers of top quality equipment, and even makes bespoke fitness equipment made to order for groups such as the armed forces, professional football clubs and large catalogue companies (one of which has been established over 50 years) and orders in excess of £200,000 worth of equipment each year. The result is a business that has seen strong and controlled growth. The business is extremely well established with first class customer service and reputation. Equipment: all client details are stored on a comprehensive database with full stock control facility. Sage is used for invoicing and payroll.

This business does everything possible to enhance its excellent reputation and to develop commitment to customers' needs providing a personal, thorough and high added value service; with a promise of trust earned where customer satisfaction is paramount. Key strengths: this business is fully re-locatable and can therefore be run from anywhere in the uk. Sales are consistent and circa £1,746,000. This is a well-established company with a superb reputation. It is easy to operate and highly profitable. The business has an impressive base of repeat order account customers, and its customer base is constantly expanding. In summary, this is a truly superb business requiring minimal staff levels and offering strong sustainable growth and potentially high profit margins. This is a tremendous opportunity to secure a well-respected industry leader in this fast growing market. Growth and expansion: the current market for this business's services is upward and is forecast in the near and longer term for significant growth. The business is well positioned to take maximum advantage of this growth as it occurs and has a strong customer base to consolidate and expand. The business stays ahead of current and new legislation and are in a strong position to win new business.
