CONSTRUCTION PLANT AND MACHINERY BUSINESS in the North of England for Sale.

Opportunity to acquire the business and assets of a long-established specialist supplier of new and nearly-new construction plant and machinery with a strong reputation across both UK and international markets. Established in 2011, the business specialises in the purchase and sale of premium construction equipment, particularly excavators, telehandlers, dumpers, rollers and associated attachments. A key differentiator is its access to exceptionally high-quality, low-hour machinery, much of which benefits from extended manufacturer warranties that are rarely available through competitors.

The company serves a broad customer base ranging from sole traders and small contractors through to major house builders, civil engineering companies and international organisations. Sales are geographically diverse, with approximately 25% generated in the UK, 35% across Europe and 40% worldwide.

The business has built a loyal repeat customer base through its reputation for honesty, accurate equipment descriptions and reliable service. Many overseas clients purchase machinery without inspection due to the trust developed over many years, resulting in substantial repeat business and referrals.

Operations benefit from extremely low overheads, no long-term property commitment and a highly relocatable model. The business currently trades from rented premises and could be transferred to an alternative location with minimal disruption.

New business is generated through a combination of the company website, leading industry sales platforms, social media channels, customer referrals and repeat orders. There is clear scope to increase revenues through enhanced digital marketing, greater social media activity and an expanded product range.

Offered for sale due to the owner's planned retirement, the business represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a profitable, established and scalable enterprise operating within a resilient industry with year-round demand. The vendor is willing to provide a comprehensive handover period to ensure a smooth transition.
