Other information

Expansion potential:

Our clients are confident that the company offers substantial scope for further growth and feel that that a new owner may consider developing the business in the following key areas:

• Sales & Marketing – Our clients have deliberately limited the company’s marketing efforts, restricting the business to a level at which they and their staff are comfortable with. The business is heavily reliant on its existing client base and personal recommendations. It is likely that a new owner may consider adopting a more pro-active approach to sales and marketing in order to drive the business forward and increase levels of turnover and profitability. This may well include the redevelopment of the company’s somewhat basic website together with its optimisation and promotion on leading internet search engines.

• LEV Testing – The COSHH Regulations 2002 require that Local Exhaust Ventilation (LEV) systems are thoroughly examined and tested every 14 months by a competent LEV test engineer. The company currently carries out only a limited amount of LEV testing on behalf of key clients. Our clients believe that a new owner may wish develop this aspect of the business and introduce additional revenue streams.
