Small bespoke joinery workshop with freehold premises in Cardiff

About this business

A small joinery workshop in Cardiff making kitchens, wardrobes, shelving and one-off pieces for local homeowners. Since 2017 it has occupied an owned industrial-estate unit, and four people do the making and fitting. Turnover has risen gently to £320k, but adjusted EBITDA is only £28k, a thin return. The asking price of £90k sits below net assets of £129k, which include the workshop and its machinery. A buyer with a trade background could run it hands-on and work on pricing.

Key investment highlights

  • Asking price £90k, below net assets
  • Freehold workshop on an industrial estate
  • Fitted kitchens and wardrobes
  • Team of four

Reason for sale

The owner is retiring and would like the workshop to stay in joinery.
