This long-established events décor company has been creating high-impact centrepieces and event décor for corporate awards, gala dinners and brand launches since 1999and is now offered for sale due to the owner’s retirement. With repeat bookings from blue-chip names including Williams Racing, EDF Energy and Corgi, alongside prestigious events such as the Worcestershire Ambassadors Ball and the Bath and Bristol Life Awards, the business has built a strong reputation and loyal client base over many years.
The business is fully relocatable and is run on a true owner-operator basis with no employees, offering genuine flexibility and control over your diary. Busy periods centre around installations and evening or next-day collections, leaving other days free for creative planning, quoting, stock management and following up regular enquiries generated through the website. Corporate events are predominantly midweek, meaning many weekends are free.
Clients typically book events of 20-100 tables, with centrepieces hired at £30-£45 per table, rising to up to £75 per table when chair covers are included. The décor range includes LED illuminated chandeliers, ostrich feather centrepieces, crystal trees, martini glass displays, star centrepieces, crystal candelabras, crystal globes and moon balls, all designed to create a strong visual impact and encourage repeat bookings and referrals. Balloons are still offered but have been deliberately scaled back in favour of more stylish, higher-margin décor. There is currently no paid advertising, with regular enquiries generated organically via the website.
Included in the sale is a comprehensive stock inventory with a replacement value of circa £80,000, built up over many years, allowing the business to service multiple large events concurrently without additional investment. Also included are two established websites, social media accounts and business email. Two fully branded Transit vans are available by separate negotiation for buyers wanting a turnkey setup.
Financials are solid, with turnover of £59,658, an impressive 80% gross profit margin and adjusted net profit of £31,589 for the year to June 2024. Overheads are low and there are no business rates payable.
This is a creative, flexible lifestyle business with clear scope to expand into weddings and private events, or to scale further within the corporate market. It would suit a hands-on owner seeking autonomy and balance, or an existing operator looking to build on a well-established platform.
The seller is happy to provide free training to a purchaser to ensure they have everything needed to be successful moving forward.
