Business for sale

Business description

Just under a year ago when all the talk was about the shortage of fencing panels I came up with the idea of a fencing panel which uses 90% less wood than existing wooden panels and that looks like a hedge.After extensive research and dozens of emails I found a cost effective supplier of hedge like material in China and imported 2000 panels ready to be attached to a wooden frame.Each panel take approx.fifteen minutes to attach to the wooden frame using an electric staple gun which is supplied and can be assembled by virtually any able bodied person.The panels have been marketed under the name of `FEDGE` which is a registered trade name and can not be used by any other person in the UK.

The name of course will be transferred to the successful buyer.A website - www.fedgefencingcompany.co.uk - has been set up and again ownership will be transferred to the relevant buyer.I have sold approx 150 panels already,mainly to local customers after we did a local limited leaflet drop.Each single sided panel costs approx.£9 to manufacture which includes materials and labour and retails for £31.99,giving a profit of £22.99 for each panel.The sale is for approx.1800 panels so a potential profit of £41,382.00 can be obtained by an enthusiastic person.Nobody in the UK or Europe is making these panels and a little reseach will show that the nearest product to these is the boxwood type which sell for astronomical amounts.

Just type in boxwood panels on a google search and you can see for yourself.I have been approached by one of the large DIY centres but at the time I was not interested because as you will no doubt be aware they demand vast stocks to be held by us which they can call upon with just a days notice and to be honest I do not have the storage capacity that they would need.We are based in Birmingham and any prospective buyers are welcome to come and see the product and our manufacturing base(small that it is).Continuity of supply has been established with my overseas supplier.

Please check the website www.fedgefencingcompany.co.uk for prices etc. and if there is any other information that I can give you please do not hesitate to get in touch initially through the `ask the seller a question ` section on this site You can if you wish phone me on 07956460693.The sale price is £16,500 plus vat.for a very lucrative business opportunity with no competitors.I will not accept any offers and the first person to see the potential of this business will no doubt purchase it.The reason for this sale is that I am now at retirement age and having successfully sold my amusement machine supply business I wish to spend more time at my apartment in Tenerife.
