Description
Private Home Cleaning company, established 2006. Business is well established and has gained excellent local reputation, and is neither a franchise nor an agency. Seven part time ladies are fully employed with payroll outsourced for ease. Most of the income beyond wages is company profit as we neither supply cleaning products nor provide cars. Business is currently run from home. Client consultations and business administration can fit easily around family commitments. Business registered to well chosen mailbox address in Bath city centre, so easy to hand-over as mail can be collected or forwarded to any address. Business also has local phone number with phone answering currently outsourced. Gross profit expected £15-18k this year and there is excellent scope for expansion. The market in Bath is growing exponentially and will always be present due to the affluence of the city. Company branding and name memorable and aimed at the upper end of the market, with most clients owning period or architect designed properties. Many enquiries come via word of mouth recommendation and are also generated by the business name itself. The business is flourishing. This is an excellent opportunity for an owner/manager looking to step right in to a profitable company without the worries of starting from scratch. They would be in full control of the company, unlike with some franchises which may tie them in to leasing cars, equipment etc. Monthly outgoings are low, could be lower if outsourced activities brought back in. Business administration straight-forward, business is run from home using PC, printer and company mobile. Reason for sale - owner moved abroad earlier in the year with partner, originally for a 12 month period. Business being run by manager-friend of owner for the period. Relocation now looks to be semi-permanent hence reluctant sale.
