About this business
A carbon accounting practice trading since 2009, calculating emissions for small companies, charities and schools and helping them report and reduce them. It owns a freehold office in a rural spot within Greater London, and the building transfers with the business. Its team of 3 is small but busy: sales have risen annually from £194k in 2021 to £310k, and EBITDA from £41k to £59k, a margin of 19%. The work is mostly desk-based, so a buyer could relocate it and keep or sell the building.
Key investment highlights
- Freehold office included
- Turnover up every year since 2021
- Margin of 19%
- Trading since 2009
Reason for sale
