About this business
This Stoke-on-Trent subcontract machinist produces milled and turned parts for pump makers, ceramics equipment builders and general engineering customers across Staffordshire. It works from leased industrial premises with 9 staff. Turnover has sat at around £1.00m every year since 2021, while EBITDA has risen steadily from £120k to £143k, so the business is earning more from the same volume of work. It has traded since 2018. A buyer would find a settled team and a sound base, with new customers the obvious way to grow.
