Camper Van & Motor Home Conversions Business For Sale

Business description

Advent Business Sales have been instructed to offer for sale this reputable and highly profitable concern with phenomenal potential for further growth.

Established in 2006 by the vendors, it is now reluctantly offered for sale due to one of vendor’s plans to relocate abroad.

The business specialises in converting people carriers into camper vans and motor homes. The main concentration has been on converting imported Japanese vehicles for trade.

As the business has progressed, the vendors have added additional services to compliment the business which include:
Metal work and framing work for beds
Upholstery and re-upholstery as well as
adding roof boxes

The demand for this service has grown and turnover is expected to exceed 1 million for 2008/2009 with increased profit margin.

To realise growth potential, the vendors have decided to offer a complete service of upholstery and metal work, not only to the trade dealers but also to other similar establishments throughout the country who only specialise in sales.

The business operates from 3 units, all with ample space for growth and is fully equipped for purpose.

The business is staffed by the 2 vendors together with 6 fitters, 1 upholsterer and 1 welder, who all work on a full time, self employed basis.

A large proportion of turnover is accredited to reputation, although aggressive internet marketing through their website and e-bay presence is quickly gathering momentum. The kit form is also available on e-bay and on their website.
The reputation is such that customers from all over the UK, who are looking at converted vehicles, regard the services as probably the best in the industry.

Our client also has a small stock of his own vehicles to sell.
