Packaging design studio in central London

About this business

Designs packaging and labels for drinks, cosmetics and food brands, from a leased studio in central London. The business started in 2020 and has 6 staff. Turnover has declined each year, from £576k to £470k, and EBITDA from £99k to £73k, so a buyer would need to win new clients. Margins remain reasonable at about 16%. The asking price is £325k. This could suit a larger agency looking to add packaging work.

Key investment highlights

  • EBITDA of £73k
  • Margin of about 16%
  • Leased central London studio
  • Team of 6

Reason for sale

The partners are going separate ways and have agreed to sell the studio.
