The business is run from home with the majority of driving being undertaken by self employed drivers and achieving an excellent adjusted NET PROFIT. The business has a substantial client base and involves mainly providing an executive chauffeur service to and from airports to private clients with the occasional, long distance excursion. Currently operating a fleet of two Ford Transit, 8 Seater mini-busses and a Ford Mondeo estate car (vehicles available by separate negotiation). This is an exciting opportunity for the purchaser - to take this business from strength to strength - EARLY VIEWING RECOMMENDED TO AVOID DISAPPOINTMENT. Business run from home. Ref: 556959

PAT Testing and fire safety, run from home - another business sold
Fabulous, old established business which is not only HIGHLY PROFITABLE and easily operated but oozes potential. The business provides an annual service to all electrical appliances in the workplace from general office equipment, computers, printers, large items of machinery etc to domestic appliances in canteens and kitchens within any workplace in order for the client to show that they comply with the Electricity at Work Regulation 1989. The business has a large database of customers which include many “Blue Chip” companies and the scope to increase here is enormous as many businesses are still not aware/availing themselves of this service which some insurance companies also make a requirement. Our client could very easily obtain more work but this would require him to work longer hours or employ a third party – Currently run in approximately 40 hours per week, Monday to Friday only – NO WEEKEND WORK. The business shows excellent adjusted net profits and continues to rise. The business has been sensibly priced. Ref: 554600

Well known and well respected business which is recommended by a wide range of professional businesses including accountants, solicitors, business transfer agents and a number of retail associations and federations. The stocktakes done by this business are acceptable to HM Revenue and Customs, leading banks and financial institutions.
