About this business
A small air conditioning and refrigeration business in suburban Glasgow, trading since 2022 and selling its freehold workshop with the business. It installs and maintains cooling for shops, cafés, offices and food businesses, including cold rooms and display fridges. Turnover has grown every year, from £285k to £390k, though EBITDA has only crept up to £45k, so margins are thin. Four engineers and staff share the work. A buyer gets the property, a list of maintenance customers and room to price jobs more firmly. The asking price is £200k.
Key investment highlights

Reason for sale
