Under £50K

Asking Price: £70,000

Established and highly regarded inflatable and event hire business for sale in West Sussex.

Currently on track to exceed £100,000 revenue this year, despite being run part-time by two owners who both have separate full-time jobs.

This represents a strong opportunity for a new owner to take over an established operation with proven demand and significant potential to grow simply by increasing time, staffing and capacity.

Included in the £70,000 sale:

  • Established business, brand and goodwill
  • Strong local reputation and repeat customer base
  • Customer database and forward bookings
  • Highranking website and strong SEO presence
  • Second website/brand ready to develop
  • Established social media channels
  • Two vans (For Transits 2018 lots of work with records, including substantial work 2026)
  • Selected inflatables and operational equipment
  • Existing systems, supplier relationships and processes
  • Full handover and training
  • Further Assets Available

The business owns a substantial additional inventory of inflatables and event equipment which will be sold separately.

The purchaser of the business will have first option on all remaining equipment before it is offered elsewhere.

Key Opportunity:

  • £100k+ projected revenue this year
  • Achieved while operated around two fulltime jobs
  • Proven customer demand already exists
  • Capacity has been the main constraint on growth
  • Strong scope to increase revenue through additional staffing and availability
  • Established online presence means no need to build a customer base from scratch
  • Lean, highly seasonal business model with the majority of revenue generated across spring and summer

Reason for Sale:

Both owners have moved into full-time careers and can no longer dedicate the time required to maximise the business.

A quick and straightforward sale is sought, reflected in the £70,000 asking price.

Serious enquiries only. Further financial information, booking data and asset details are available following an initial confidential discussion.

Business Operation

Management type:
This business is owner operated.
Expansion Potential:

There is clear and immediate opportunity to grow the business, with demand currently exceeding the owners’ available capacity.

Growth opportunities include:

- Increased capacity: The current owners regularly turn away bookings due to time constraints.

- Introducing additional staff or drivers would allow for a significant increase in booking volume.

- Geographic expansion: Opportunity to extend coverage into neighbouring counties and higher-density areas.

- Midweek and commercial bookings: Untapped potential in schools, corporate events, and weekday hires.

- Cross-selling and upselling: Expanding package offerings (e.g. inflatables, photo booths, and add-ons) to increase average order value.

- Digital marketing scale-up: Building on strong existing SEO performance with paid advertising and improved conversion strategies.

- Winter revenue growth: Further development of indoor hires and photo booth bookings to reduce seasonality.

Competition / Market:

The business operates within a competitive but highly fragmented local market, with many operators offering a limited range of equipment or running smaller, part-time operations.

This business differentiates itself through:

  • One of the largest and most modern stock ranges in the local area
  • A strong online presence, ranking highly for key local search terms
  • An established brand with a loyal and repeat customer base
Reasons for selling:

The sale is due to a change in personal circumstances, with the current owners no longer able to commit the time required to continue operating and growing the business at its full potential.

Trading hours:

The business operates flexibly in line with customer demand, with the majority of bookings taking place during weekends and peak seasonal periods (spring and summer).

Typical working hours are driven by event schedules, with deliveries and collections generally occurring in the mornings and late afternoons. Midweek work is more limited but offers clear opportunity for expansion, particularly within schools and corporate events.

This flexible model allows the owner to balance workload and lifestyle, with the option to scale operating hours up or down depending on business needs.

Employees:

Years established:
2011 - Original Business. Current Ltd since 2019
