About this business
A Manchester installer of hydrogen dispensers, storage tanks and safety systems for depots, test facilities and early-adopter fleets. Since 2019 it has worked from a small freehold building in a suburb, which is included, with five engineers and office staff. Turnover has grown each year, from £359k to £550k, though adjusted EBITDA of £58k shows a thin margin. Net assets of £245k are above the £175k asking price, and the work is site-based, so the business could move.
Key investment highlights
- Turnover up from £359k to £550k
- Freehold building included
- Net assets above the asking price
- Team of five
Reason for sale
