Increased tonnage would provide better buying power and help to create a competitive edge to the company.

Support & training:

The proprietor would be very willing to complete a full and seamless hand over to a new owner for a period to be agreed as part of the negotiation process. Having started the business he is very keen to see the business continue to succeed.
