During the past 12 years, it’s remained an innovative and diversified business by keeping up-to-date with the latest technologies and investing in good quality equipment and vehicles.
Other than when it first started, THE BUSINESS has never had to chase new customers, as its reputation has meant that “word of mouth” brings it more demand than it can presently handle, leading to it having to turn down many works.
If the new owner wished to invest in the additional staff and equipment necessary to take advantage of this demand, then an increase in revenue and profits would be immediate. With the very limited number of competing electrical companies within the region and the enormous demand for work, the potential to expand the business is unlimited. Areas such as renewable energies, security and data, and air conditioner installations are also in big demand.
