  Business Summary   
  HISTORY

• The company has been trading since 1987. The husband and wife Director’s purchased the company ten years ago.

REASON FOR SALE

• This is a genuine retirement sale.

PRODUCTS/SERVICES:

• The company is a specialist manufacturer of clear gift boxes for transparent packaging.
• The products are ideal for display gift boxes, clear printable boxes, cosmetic packaging, point of sale presentation and food display boxes.
• The product range includes flexible boxes and lids, cartons, cylinders, tubes with end caps.
• Production/orders have a minimum order value whilst production runs tend to be to a maximum of 20,000 units per style. This is an area with very limited competition, as most manufacturers will not accommodate small short runs despite the high margins.
• Most orders are from the active database or from the web site.
• The company has also recently started buying and selling injection moulded packs from a German supplier. At present this accounts for a small part of annual revenues but is anticipated to grow dramatically. This part of the business is currently being incorporated into the current website

CUSTOMERS

• The company has an active database of circa 300 customers.
• Two thirds pay for all goods on an upfront basis with the balance paying promptly.
• The company owns a vast range of almost 2,000 “for me boards,” which ensures a high level of regular and repeat orders


SKILLS REQUIRED

• The Director informs us that basic engineering skills are required in order to run the business.

HAND OVER

• The Director’s are flexible to conduct detailed hand over periods. They are also willing to guarantee the debtors upon a share sale.

CONCLUSION

• Genuine sale, which presents a rare opportunity to purchase such a clean, tidy and profitable business, with post completion support if needed. Incredible potential to increase bottom lines much further, but must have some basic engineering skills. Full training provided.
