Owner moving overseas
This is a unique opportunity to acquire a highly efficient and eco-conscious landscaping business servicing Melbourne metro and growth corridors. Parks & Gardens provides recurring landscaping services to aged care homes, schools, display home builders, commercial properties, and high-end residential clients. Services include mowing, hedge trimming, weed control, clean-ups, and seasonal maintenance—delivered by subcontracted field teams and coordinated by a lean internal staff.
The business currently completes over 800 jobs per month and generated $1.1M revenue in FY2024, with a gross margin of 90% and EBITDA of 16%. It runs with minimal owner involvement thanks to streamlined systems, a cloud-based job management platform (SM8), and a capable admin and scheduling team spread across Melbourne and the Philippines.
Core clients include display home builders (450 jobs/month), aged care groups (200–400), schools (10–20), and premium homeowners. Most work is ongoing, tied to long-term service relationships, giving the business predictable monthly revenue and operational stability. Many clients value the business’s professionalism, consistency, and environmental values.
Parks & Gardens stands out in several ways:
It is a low-touch business with well-documented workflows and defined roles across scheduling, delivery, and quality assurance.
It operates with a green ethos—75% of the fleet is battery-powered, all waste is recycled via Eco1, and the business has moved away from landfill.
Growth has been driven by three successful acquisitions in the past three years, each delivering immediate uplift in revenue and scale.
Its online presence, particularly through the Natureworks brand, drives organic leads, supported by outbound campaigns targeting commercial and aged care segments.
This business suits a commercial operator, investor, or facilities management provider looking to step into a proven, cashflow-positive enterprise. It offers:
Turnkey operations with a stable, skilled team and strong systems.
Recurring client contracts delivering consistent job volume.
Growth potential through territory expansion, increased services, or further acquisitions.
Lean cost structure with low fixed overheads and subcontractor delivery model.
Strong brand recognition and eco credentials that align with shifting client expectations.
Buyers don’t need horticultural expertise—this is a business for someone confident in managing people, overseeing systems, and driving growth.
Founded to deliver high-quality, sustainable landscaping services, Parks & Gardens has grown rapidly through three successful acquisitions since 2021. Each acquisition expanded its client base, boosted revenue, and improved operational scale. From an initial $254K in revenue, the business has scaled to $1.1M by FY2024, supported by a streamlined team, proven systems, and a recurring job model. The company has built a strong brand in aged care, display homes, and commercial landscaping with minimal owner input.
