Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this well established chilled distribution company, which was established by our clients in 1997 and which is only now being placed on the market due to retirement. The business generates a turnover in the region of £615,000 per annum with a gross profit of 36%, derived from chilled nationwide distribution and ambient storage within its 5,000 sq ft warehouse. The company is the largest specialist food delivery business of its kind in the country and acquires its business from pack houses and mainline hauliers, and delivers into all the major supermarket distribution centres nationwide. A new owner could significantly increase turnover by perhaps, opening a satellite office in Milton Keynes to cover the M1 corridor, sell franchises and offer international services. At present, little in the way of marketing is carried out and a modest advertising campaign would reap rewards. We feel this is an excellent opportunity to acquire a nationwide distribution company with huge scope for future growth. Early discussions with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
