About this business
A same-day courier collecting and delivering documents, parcels and pallets for local businesses across the East Midlands. Four people run it from a small unit it owns on a Nottingham industrial estate; the unit is part of the deal. It has traded since 2017.
Turnover has crept up every year, from £187k in 2021 to £210k, while adjusted EBITDA has gone from £13k to £21k. Net profit is £18k. The business is small and the freehold makes up much of its value, which the asking price of £85k reflects.
Key investment highlights
- Freehold unit included
- Adjusted EBITDA up every year since 2021
- Team of four
- Trading since 2017
Reason for sale
The owner is retiring and selling the unit and the work together.
