Business description

This commendable business was established by its present directors in 1997. It specialises in the import and distribution of ATV s (all terrain vehicles) / Quad Bikes, which it supplies to both the retail and trade agricultural market right across the UK. This business has established itself as one of the UK s leading suppliers of top quality machines. The evolution of the ATV into a multi purpose vehicle appealing to both agricultural and sports users has created a strong and increasing demand and moreover demand is predicted to remain strong for the foreseeable future. The directors have invested heavily in sourcing only the very best machines to import and retail in the UK and because they are not franchised to any one manufacturer, can give honest impartial advice to their customers. The result is a business that has seen strong and controlled growth with profit margins that are some of the healthiest in the industry. Key Strengths: FULLY RELOCATABLE. EXCELLENT AND CONSISTENT SALES OF CIRCA 1.5 MILLION. WELL ESTABLISHED (10 YEARS) WITH A SUPERB REPUTATION EASY TO OPERATE AND HIGHLY PROFITABLE OPERATION. IMPRESSIVE BASE OF REPEAT ORDER ACCOUNT CUSTOMERS. A GROWING COMPANY WITH A CUSTOMER BASE THAT IS CONSTANTLY EXPANDING. ENTREPRENEURIAL AND PROFESSIONALLY MANAGED BUSINESS In summary; this is a truly superb business requiring minimal staff levels and offering strong sustainable growth and high profit margins. This is a tremendous opportunity to secure a well respected industry leader in this fast growing market. The company is well aware of the huge opportunities presented by the broad range of machine manufacturers in the ATV market including, Honda, Yamaha, Kawasaki and Suzuki, to name but a few. Growth and Expansion: The company has predominantly only supplied retailers to the agricultural community and additionally the Directors have as a result of other business interests never adopted a particularly pro-active approach to the acquisition of new accounts. As a consequence an enormous opportunity exists to expand the current client base nationally within the agricultural use fraternity, but also to expand the client base to retailers of machines used in the pursuit of sports and recreation. Noteworthy is the fact that the company has never employed a Sales Representative. Equally, the company has to date not exploited the vast opportunity to retail direct to the public. An additional and substantial turnover could be achieved in this regard by the implementation of conventional print and online advertising and also by attending sporting and industry specific shows and events. The company has also to date not taken advantage of the tremendous opportunity to distribute parts, clothing and accessories which could easily and instantly be marketed to the existing client base thus producing a further substantial turnover and a business within a business opportunity Advertising and Marketing: Historically the company has done little in the way of advertising and marketing, thus affording the new owner untapped potential.
