Potential
The potential to grow the existing business is only limited by your choice of investment. For the past 2 years the existing business owner has intentionally held off additional growth due to personal competing demands, however the avenues for repeat business remain on offer. This is due to long standing goodwill in the retail sector with corporate entities and franchises forged over 35 years of industry service. The new owner will have total control over the volume of work undertaken and the direction in which the business steers.
Skills
The business can be operated from an office overseeing subcontractors, or alternatively with a working director on the tools, or a combination of both. The current business owner has a 'BUILDER RESTRICTED TO SHOPFITTING" licence supported by a personally held 'Supervisor' QBCC licence. Project management experience will be as asset as will CAD experience. This business operates with an established base of sub-contractors covering all the necessary trades associated with retail and office fit-outs, refurbishment, de-fits, and make goods.
Hours
Business is largely undertaken during normal trading hours with call to schedule afterhours work for the retail sector.
Lease
Nil
Employees
There are no direct employees apart from the business owner/director. All other labour is provided through the established sub-contractor base as required, making book-keeping and HR an absolute breeze.
Reason for Sale
The founding business owner has worked conscientiously within this business for 35 years and is now wanting to direct time and efforts more into charity work and other pursuits close to his heart.

Our work in the office sector includes the managemnt of ceiling, lighting, electrical, mechanical, and fire services upgrades and well as partitoning, glazing and floor solutions.

History
The business owner served his apprenticeship in a newsagency fit-out company on Brisbane's northside in the early 80's. Upon completion, he set about establishing his own shopfitting business which over time and through quality service provision, has grown into the business that is before you today. The business is founded on old school principles of honest, reliable, customer service which has been the catalyst for a returning customer base and expansion into new and emerging markets. Every client connection is relationally important.
