Business description

Based in the South East this is an independent electrical wholesaler operating from freehold premises supplying a broad range of electrical installation products, lighting solutions, and technical support to trade, commercial, and public sector customers. The business operates across both trade counter and project-based supply, supporting projects ranging from day-to-day electrical requirements through to larger commercial and infrastructure works.

The operation benefits from a loyal and well-established customer base, with a high proportion of revenue generated from repeat clients. Its customers include contractors, commercial organisations, and public sector bodies, providing a balanced mix of income streams and reducing reliance on any single sector.

The business has demonstrated strong financial performance, generating turnover of approximately £1.1m, alongside an EBITDA of £179,259 in 2025. This performance is supported by a combination of recurring trade sales and higher-value project work, as well as a consistent margin profile across its product offering.

The company is supported by an experienced team managing day-to-day operations, including sales, purchasing, and logistics, allowing for a smooth transition to new ownership. The current structure enables the business to operate efficiently with minimal reliance on the owner.

There is clear potential for further growth through expansion of commercial project work, strengthening supplier relationships, and increasing geographic reach.
