Business profile:
This profitable and well known supplier of Aluminium and uPVC windows, doors and conservatories was established in 1980 by the current owners. After previously working in the industry, he decided to open his own retail outlet in a prominent city centre location. With a focus on the quality of products and customer service from the beginning, the business quickly built-up a great reputation in the market. The business supplies and fits units for private customers, commercial projects and some public sector buildings. This breath gives rise to steady and on-going revenue streams. After being established for so long, previous private individuals are now returning regularly for new orders as the move property, or for maintenance. The company, and all the window fitters are fully FENSA registered, the business is registered with the Consumer Protection Association and all work has a 10 year insurance guarantee offering.
In 2000, the owner decided that the best way to keep to the highest quality standards, and realise margins was to set-up a factory with a partner to oversee production. This manufacturing facility is also separately being marketed for sale. The units all have CE markings, and the business has exclusive sales contracts with a number of high profile international brands, with a growing market for the top of the range aluminium bi-folding patio doors manufactured to the German parent companies specifications. These high quality ranges are proving very popular in the market, with many orders received during and after exhibitions such as The Ideal Home Show.
The business receives orders from private individuals via the showrooms and follow-up visits to properties to measure and quote. Private work currently accounts for approximately 1/3 of the revenue. Another 1/3 is received from Commercial work such as large contracts with some well known names such as Ramada Jarvis, Gillette, Linden Homes and other National Building Contractors. The remaining revenue comes in from Public Sector work, with major contracts won over the years from numerous local authorities in the region for major projects including schools, hospitals and other public buildings. |

| Training: The vendor will be delighted to agree to a handover period for the successful transition of operations to new owners. |
| Facilities: The shop units are leasehold, and have around 10 years remaining on their fully renewable leases. Each are around 400 sq ft, with the majority devoted to display space, with small on-site management offices, toilet facilities and staff kitchenette. The annual rent for each is approximately Ł10,000 per annum, with business rates payable of around Ł2,000 per annum. |
| Competition: The business has marketed itself over the years in local press, Yellow Pages and Thomson directories. There is a company website detailing the product ranges and the details of the shop units. The business attends major exhibitions with the partner manufacturing company, where they show the key ranges, with support promotional material from the main manufacturing companies in Germany and Belgium. Attending the Ideal Home Show, and the Home Improvement show at Sandown Park, generates some orders during the events and many follow-up orders in the following weeks and months. Public sector and Commercial work is won via direct marketing and tendering. The business receives huge amounts of business from recommendation and referral after building an excellent reputation in the marketplace. |
| Growth: The business is well placed for further growth and increasing market share in a number of directions. With testimonials from well known commercial projects, the vendor is certain that with further marketing to the non-domestic sector, turnover could easily be greatly increased. There is also the potential to partner with other companies in the industry across the south east, this approach has already been successful over the years for the vendor. |
