Equipment: the majority of the specialist equipment the business uses is leased, including the signwritten company van. This keeps fixed costs to a minimum and improves cash flow. Customer service: this is a real strength of the business. Because the company is small it is highly flexible in its approach and provides speedy solutions and response times.

It has the supply partners already in place, its customer base is growing and its reputation proceeds it. The business is truly scaleable and requires further resource to exploit its position. It has the ability to cross-sell and develop a strategic sales and marketing plan to maximise its profitability.
