BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
The business started as a 1 person operation, with the current owner providing hand drawn caricatures at a well know London attraction. Identifying an opportunity to offer a consistent service across multiple sites, the business has grown organically to now provide a range of artistic services, including caricatures, face painting, temporary tattoos and hair wraps at a number of prestigious tourist attractions. The business has bespoke sales units at all of the attractions with permanent units built at the most profitable attraction, which further cements the relationship with each location.
The vendor runs the business from home, predominantly managing the back office function and employs staff to manage much of the day to day operations. The business recruits and trains its own artistic staff, with robust training and processes in place to ensure consistent quality in the delivery of the services. The number of artists employed varies from 5-6 in the winter periods up to 40-50 at peak times. Artist skills are not a requirement for the owner of the business.
Turnover for the current year will exceed £450,000, delivering earnings before owner drawings of around £100,000. The vendor wants to change her focus to raising a family and is therefore marketing the business for sale. Currently run from a home office, the business is easily relocatable.
The business is being marketed by www.sellmysmallbusiness.co.uk and please direct enquiries to info@sellmysmallbusiness.co.uk. Please do not contact the vendor directly.
