An opportunity to acquire a well-established and profitable independent plant, tool and equipment hire business serving a broad and active customer base across the South West.
Trading for almost 20 years, the Company has developed a strong regional presence and operates a diversified business model incorporating plant and equipment hire, trade counter sales, gas supply, cross-hire and transport services.
The business serves approximately 900 active customers and benefits from high levels of repeat trade, with customer retention estimated at circa 90%. Revenue is well diversified, with no material reliance on any single customer.
Operations are supported by a substantial owned hire fleet comprising more than 600 items, with strong utilisation across key equipment categories.
The Company has recently completed a strategic acquisition which has increased its scale, expanded the customer base and strengthened its position within its core geographic market.
Importantly, the business benefits from an established management and operational team responsible for its day-to-day running, with minimal involvement required from the current owner.
The Company is being offered for sale as part of the owner's succession planning.

Recent financial performance reflects increased trading activity, continued investment in the hire fleet and the benefit of the acquisition completed during the period. Adjusted Maintainable EBITDA has been normalised for identified non-recurring items to provide a more representative indication of underlying trading performance.
Opportunities for further development include increasing cross-selling across the existing customer base, targeted investment in high-demand equipment categories, geographic expansion, enhanced marketing and continued development of the enlarged customer base following the recent acquisition.
The opportunity is expected to be of particular interest to established trade operators seeking geographic expansion, investment-led acquirers and experienced owner-operators.
Offers are invited for 100% of the issued share capital.
