Order fulfilment and dispatch business in suburban Leicester

About this business

Leicester fulfilment business storing stock and shipping orders for online sellers, run from leasehold premises on the edge of the city. Since 2017 it has built a team of 12, and turnover has risen each year from £720k in 2021 to £910k. EBITDA has grown faster, up 67% to £184k, giving a margin of about 20%. That pattern suggests the operation is absorbing extra volume without adding much cost. The lease, the racking and handling equipment and the client relationships would all pass to a buyer.
