Contract furniture manufacturer trading since 1997 in Sheffield

About this business

A Sheffield manufacturer of office and education furniture, including desks, storage and seating frames, supplied to fit-out firms and trade buyers. It has run since 1997 and works from a leased factory unit with 17 staff. Turnover has risen every year, from £1.10m to £1.40m, and adjusted EBITDA has nearly doubled to £202k. Production could move elsewhere, as nothing in the work depends on this particular factory. Net assets are £477k, and the asking price is £925k.

Key investment highlights

  • Adjusted EBITDA up from £107k to £202k
  • Team of 17
  • Leased factory, relocatable
  • Net assets of £477k

Reason for sale

The founder is stepping down after a long career and wants a buyer who will keep the workforce.
