Turner Butler are delighted to be appointed as sole selling agents for this exciting business opportunity which has never been brought to the market for sale before.This family owned and managed business has been dynamically and skillfully operated with great energy since 1996. The business has been steadily growing throughout this period, to a point today where they stand at the pinnacle of their industry and, again through skillful management and great vision, the business now stands on an excellent trading platform for the future.
The company operates from its central “hub”, which includes a very widely and substantially stocked retail outlet, which in itself has seen strong growth even in the leaner economic times currently being experienced. The family have invested heavily in the “engine room” of their business, this being their human resource, their technical abilities and their state of the art equipment. The training ethic is also very evident in this business, with training updating being addressed at the earliest possible convenience.
