Business description

turner butler are delighted to be appointed as sole selling agents for this exciting business opportunity, which has never been brought to the market for sale before. This company has grown organically since its inception in 2002, and provides security guard services to its four main customers across locations in leicestershire and south yorkshire. The company has provided their core customers with their security service requirements for the last 8+ years on yearly contracts, which are all in place for 2010. Cashflow for the business is regulated and kept manageable by both clients and staff being paid weekly and, by the nature of the workings of the business, the company, which is currently operated from the principals home, will require relocation, preferably somewhere around their zone of operation. We understand that the company also frequently undertakes short term work for other companies in the same areas (i.e. Motor dealerships etc.) and the principal, who now wishes to emigrate, feels that these other businesses clustered around their core clients offer the key to future growth and expansion. As will be appreciated by commercial or private investors/ entrepreneurs, it is not often to find a company such as this where main core clients remain so loyal to one source. This is borne from the efficiency and professionalism of service provided and complemented by the cost savings of approximately £1.50 per hour. Equipment: the company owns and operates an inventory of equipment and machinery etc. In the daily smooth operation of its business. All such inventory is expected to be included in a successful sales package. Customer service: as previously mentioned, core customer loyalty has remained over the full 8+ year longevity of this company’s operation, which points up an undoubtedly sound reputation for customer service. Key strengths: the key strength here are the rolling 12 month contracts which are already renewed for 2010, and offer a solid platform for required growth in the future. Growth and expansion: the new owner may wish to use the sound foundation of client contracts in existence to enable growth from acquiring further contracts perhaps in the same zonal areas, and we are led to believe that such growth is available when current contracts have ended. In fact the principal of the company feels that the company’s turnover could be expanded upwards towards £500,000 relatively easily.
