BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
Print & Design Company
Ref.IY091
Location Thames Valley,Berkshire
Asking Price £ 850,000
With six sales branches located across the south of England and Wales this print, design and copying company represents an excellent opportunity for a business within the industry looking to expand their operations. Five of the branches are based in high street location and one in a business park area. The business also operates a litho-production unit in the southwest.
The business attracts custom from a range of sources, mostly B2B; 30% of sales are paid COD, the rest on account. Print work is of small to medium format with the ability to print up to size B3. The business was initially established in 1969 and was taken over by the current owner in 1996, since which time the business has received a steady supply of work from both new and repeat customers.
A solid reputation has been built on the professional service on offer. The company prides itself on the high quality of its production, well-trained and knowledgeable staff and consistent service delivery that exceeds customer expectations. Membership of the BAPC further ensures customers can be confident in their dealings with the company.
The current owner sees the main opportunity to expand operations and maximise profits would be to integrate production with an existing company with the capacity for B2 printing. This would extend the range of printing services that the company can currently offer and take maximum advantage of the company’s existing strengths.
