Summary
Manufacture and B2B distribution into mining, gas and fluid-transfer networks. Specified product. Repeat contractor and producer orders. High gross margin. Lean overhead. Protected IP.
Net Profit
$641,912 pa
Location Details
Upper northern suburbs of Perth. Industrial setting with good supplier access and room to expand the footprint. The business is not site-sensitive. It can be relocated if a purchaser prefers another metro or a stock point closer to the east-coast.
Potential
Field contact into mine sites and head-office engineering was pulled back after COVID and has not been fully switched back on. Designs for a lower-cost mining line and a high-margin specialist-media line are already drafted. A newly re-opened east-coast basin gives the same development cycle this business originally rode in Queensland. Plant capacity is already there. The missing piece is a purchaser who will travel and sell. The vendor does not run paid advertising beyond the website.
Skills
You do not need to have designed this product. You do need a work ethic, a respect for specification-based selling, and a willingness to stay in front of engineers and purchasing officers.
The vendor will run a complete handover so the investment is secured. Suitable for a working owner who wants a lean, high-margin factory — or for a trade buyer who will drop this product line into an existing resources-services book and put a manager over the team.
Hours
Semi-managed, principals in the business circa 32 hours/week.Option to bring under full management with existing team.
Lease
It can be relocated if a purchaser prefers another metro or a stock point closer to the east-coast fields.

About the Business
KEY POINTS
1. Specified by tier-one gas and resources operators — the product sits on customer engineering standards, not on a shop shelf.
2. Two clean income lines already in the door — capital equipment to the field, plus high-margin service kits into the installed base.
3. Circa 80% repeat B2B business. Interstate producer and contractor accounts. No shopfront. No passing trade.
4. Certified Australian intellectual property and in-house manufacture of the critical wear components.
5. Excellent gross margins on a simple, documented factory process — kits in, assemble, test, crate, ex-works.
6. Lean team. Low occupancy cost. Equipped to lift output without a cap-ex rebuild.
7. 35-year key-supplier relationship already in place. Import / fabrication line is stable and transferable.
8. Documented quality system and a thick file of unsolicited customer praise — performance, support, on-time despatch.
9. Growth left on the table: traditional mining, hypersaline and wastewater duties, and a newly re-opened east-coast basin. Vendor will map it.
10. Retirement sale with up to six months of paid technical handover. Not a distressed sale.
