Small aircraft parts repair workshop in Glasgow

About this business

This Glasgow workshop repairs and overhauls aircraft components, such as actuators, valves and landing gear parts, for regional airlines, flying schools and private operators. It works from a leased industrial unit and has a team of 8. Turnover has edged up since 2022, from £918k to £970k, but EBITDA has fallen each year from £175k to £135k as costs have risen. A buyer could restore margins through pricing and parts purchasing, and would take on the test equipment and the team.

Key investment highlights

  • Turnover of £970k
  • Team of 8 technicians and staff
  • Leased industrial unit
  • Asking price of £405k
