About the Business
A trusted, family-owned business specialising in marquee hire from Karuah to Port Macquarie and the surrounding hinterlands.
Since 2017, we have provided premium Höcker P Series marquee structures, recognised worldwide for their quality, strength and ease of assembly.
With modular design, flexible sizing and layouts, we cater for both small gatherings and large events. Mid Coast Marquee Hire is a complete marquee hire service with delivery, professional installation and removal included in every quote.
The business is currently operated by a husband-and-wife team with 1 regular casual employee and other casual staff when needed for larger installations.
Marquees are normally delivered on Fridays and removed on Mondays allowing the client full use for the whole weekend.
The included marquee stock includes 2 roof span sizes of the Höcker marquees:
* 6m wide roof span up to 30m long
* 12m wide roof span up to 24m long
All stock, equipment, vehicle and 1 of the trailers are currently housed in a 9m x 6m shed.
The storage racks are included and can be adapted to suit storage space and for transporting.
Our clients range from weddings, parties, career expos, a rowing regatta, festivals and even cattle sales/expos.
Another marquee hire business in the area recently closed so this business has an expectation of more bookings and higher turnover.
If a buyer has the storage there are no lease or property costs, just wages and vehicle running costs.
The asking price is essentially 1 years turnover based on 2026.
With improved marketing this business can grow.
History
The business commenced in 2017 following a community need in Forster. For the past 10 years the bookings have been increasing with very little marketing conducted by the curent owners.
