Financial Summary

Profit & Loss account from 2020 to 2022 (forecast).



Investment Rationale

The business has grown substantially over the last 7 years, with healthy projections for the future.

The company has access to Daimler fleet buying terms. This is one of the most sought after and esteemed relationships in the industry allowing huge competitive advantage.

The majority of vehicles are leased for longer periods of time giving them a very high fleet utilisation.

The business has an existing client base who have contracts based in Europe, meaning there is an opportunity to increase the fleet into the European market.

Customer Overview

The website approximately reaches 100 plus views a day, with a minimum of 30 business and social leads per week. The overall customer database consists of over 3500 people.

This proven customer base consists of loyal and workable customers, enabling consistent growth year on year. Customers range from logistics companies who have contracts with blue chip firms, to local business owners that need vans for their day-to-day operations.

Short-term spot hires are another element of the business that has proven to be highly profitable on a day-to-day basis due to more frequent turnarounds and higher markups.

The reputation amongst customers and suppliers is second to none, making word of mouth a powerful tool.
