Business Profile:
Established in 1990, this well-known and highly regarded business has provided its comprehensive range of expert refrigeration and air-conditioning, installation and maintenance services. These services are provided by the current owner-operator.
The range of services includes;
• Commercial Refrigeration
• Commercial Air Conditioning
• Service & Maintenance
• Design & Installation
It is able to provide the exact requirement for any situation; and tailors its levels of refrigeration services to suit a client’s specific needs. So whether a maintenance issue or a refrigeration repair or an entire air conditioning system designed and installed in a commercial property this company has the expertise and the reliability to provide.
The business was set up as a result of significant demand for a professional, reputable business offering refrigeration services to exacting commercial customers and has grown by establishing an excellent reputation for its range of services and the professionalism with which it operates.
Experienced in providing its services to a range of industries, the business has gained extensive knowledge and expertise and is highly sought after, due to its flexibility of service provision and immediate response to client’s needs.
Regular maintenance is provided to multiple clients in the pub and club sectors, C-stores, butcher shops and other retail outlets with refrigeration.
The infrastructure is in place to make this opportunity an easy fit within an existing business wishing to expand its operations, or alternatively for an individual buyer looking for an established company with future potential.

Strengths include:
• Robust customer relationships
• Over 30 years successful trading
• Enviable reputation
• Full managed turnkey solutions
• Professional, attention to detail, reliable in the extreme
• Well positioned on several Preferred Supplier Lists
Key Opportunities:
This business has barely scratched the surface when considering the potential demand for its services. There is the prospect of fully expanding the current business relationships and exploring new business opportunities in other parts of the UK, which should increase sales to new and existing customers.
With an excellent infrastructure already in place this business is superbly placed to leverage the excellent reputation it has built up with the consequent impact on profits.
The company is run very much in line with the wishes of the owner and does not engage in seeking new business elsewhere in the UK, despite being asked to do so by current clients; this represents a significant opportunity for a new owner to exploit along with the development of the company’s design & installation capability.
Advertising and Marketing:
To date, little has been spent on advertising so any investment in marketing should attract additional interest and enquiries going forward.
With only word of mouth recommendations this business has maintained an impressive base of satisfied repeat accounts and clientele. It holds all the necessary accreditations and approvals to provide complete refrigeration & air-conditioning solutions.
Additional advertising and the creation of a company website, in order to showcase the services on offer, could lead to more opportunities for future growth.
