About the Business
Asking Price: $599,000
For over 15 years, this landscaping and garden design business has been shaping gardens across the Canberra region, from full residential landscapes and outdoor living spaces through to considered garden design. It's the kind of operation that grows by reputation: one well-finished job leading to the next, a client list that comes back and refers on, and a name that's genuinely known in the local market.
Behind that reputation is a business that's run properly. The owner has spent years refining how the work flows, who does what, and how the money is managed, and it shows where it counts. Turnover sits at approximately $1.3 million, gross margins have climbed to around 56%, and the balance sheet is clean and debt-free. It's a business being handed over in good shape, by an owner who's ready for the next chapter and wants it to go to the right person.
What makes this one worth a closer look:
- A long-established brand with real standing in the Canberra region
- A loyal, repeat and referral-driven client base, the hardest thing in this trade to build and the easiest to keep
- An experienced team and reliable subcontractor relationships already in place
- Well-maintained plant, vehicles and equipment, all included in the sale
- Strong and improving gross margins, on a clean, debt-free footing
- Documented systems and processes, so the business doesn't live only in the owner's head
- A genuine, unhurried handover from an owner who cares how it lands
Who it suits:
This is a natural fit for a qualified landscaper ready to stop working for someone else and run their own established operation from day one, no cold start, no chasing the first client. It's equally suited to an existing landscaping or trade business looking to expand its footprint into the Canberra market and acquire a proven brand, team and client base in one move.
The current owner is committed to a thorough handover to protect continuity for staff, clients and suppliers, and to set a new owner up to succeed.
