About this business
Founded in 1998, this Hull business sells refurbished and new network equipment online to IT departments, schools and resellers, testing and configuring kit before it ships. It has no premises today; five staff work remotely, with stock held by a storage partner. Turnover has grown gently to £830k, and adjusted EBITDA has risen every year from £138k to £186k, so margins have widened. A buyer gets a long trading history, a niche in refurbished kit and a business that could be run from anywhere.
