Remote exhibition display design business based in Derby

About this business

A small exhibition business that designs stands and portable displays for clients and manages their build, delivery and installation through outside fabricators, without premises of its own. A team of 4 works remotely and on show floors. It has traded since 2021, with turnover growing every year from £544k to £640k, while EBITDA has stayed between £132k and £142k, a margin of about 21%. Low overheads make it easy to run from anywhere, or to add to an existing events or marketing business.

  • No premises or lease
  • Margin of about 21%
  • Turnover up every year since 2021
  • Team of 4
