OPPORTUNITY OVERVIEW
The business has been built as a flexible locksmith operation serving customers across the Bristol area.
It is not tied to fixed premises, allowing a purchaser to operate from home, relocate locally, or integrate the business into an existing locksmith or security operation.
The reported profitability is attractive, particularly given the absence of rent, premises costs and staffing costs. However, the business is currently owner-operated and would require the purchaser to have locksmith experience, employ a locksmith, use subcontractors, or absorb enquiries into an existing trade operation.
For the right buyer, this could represent a practical bolt-on acquisition, providing an established trading name, website, digital presence and potential enquiry flow without taking on significant fixed overhead.
FINANCIAL OVERVIEW
· Turnover: Approximately £100,000
· Net Profit: Approximately £40,000
· Premises Costs: None
· Staffing Costs: None
· Tenure: Home-based
· Asking Price: Offers in the region of £59,950
Further financial information can be released following buyer qualification and completion of a Non-Disclosure Agreement.
GROWTH POTENTIAL
The business offers growth potential through improved local SEO, Google Ads, review generation, landlord and letting agent relationships, commercial maintenance work, smart lock services, access control and wider coverage across Bristol.
A trade buyer could potentially integrate the enquiry flow into an existing operation and increase revenue without taking on significant additional overhead.
REASON FOR SALE
The business is offered for sale due to the seller’s emigration.
As the seller is retaining the tools and equipment, the sale is focused on the brand, website, online presence and goodwill.
NEXT STEPS
All enquiries are strictly confidential.
Further information, including the business name, website, financial details and supporting information, will only be released to genuinely interested parties following buyer qualification and completion of a Non-Disclosure Agreement.
