This long established business is located in the oceanside paradise of Agnes Water which is on the southside of Gladstone. It monopolises the region's marketshare for hardware, building supplies and various other integrated industries. Ideal for either a family, owner with management team or investment buyer.
The key links in the conglomerate include;
Retail Hardware - the core of the business and one that has grown from being located in one shop on site to now occupying the most space including all four shops in the main building.
Kit or module homes - there is a wall of designs and photo's from happy clients. Both kit homes and sheds are constructed on site for owner builders or as final products.
Landscaping - includes bulk roadwork, garden and yard material.
Frame and Truss construction - for builders and the internal kit module home division.
Transport and freight -Agnes Water is ideally located between the port cities of Gladstone and Bundaberg.
Skip bins - added redently and why not? Fits in nicely with all the other divisions and just continues to solidify this business as the one stop shop for all locals and businesses.
Stock, assets and P&L:
Stock and assets are over $1 million and includes five trucks, a front end loader, two forklifts and a load of plant and equipment.
This business trades at well above average net profit margins due to bulk buying, integrated business opportunities and savvy operations gained from being in business for decades.
The property:
Let's start with 4.5 acres (14,700 m2) of flat rectangular commercial land in the industrial estate entering town. This includes about 90 m2 of road frontage with plenty of onsite customer car parking. There is lots of room for trucks or vehicles with trailers. Earthmoving was done at the start of building to allow for heavy trucks and drainage.
From there you can move easily between several buildings occupying 2,219 m2. There are 7 integrated buildings ranging from 90m2 to 840m2. These buildings are in good condition both internally and externally as can be seen by the attached pictures.
Opportunity:
The property still has a mountain of space out the back and down one side for expansion of existing divisions or for the creation of new ventures.
This region prepares for a doubling of population within the next five years due to a housing boom, extensive estate development by Stockwells and a new retail precinct. Now that's some market growth!
Purchasing:
This property and business conglomerate is for sale for $4.4 million including stock. It can continue to be run nicely as is or can be further expanded both internally or externally by expanding onto some of the free space available. A freehold sale is preferred although the owner is negotiable for a leasehold sale.
