Description
Ideally situated specialist aviation industry couriers. Great potential for growth under new ownership. The business operates from premises on the Stansted airport complex and is therefore perfectly located for the type of work it is renowned for. It has built up an enviable reputation in this area since the company's inception. For the last three years the business has been run from serviced offices. The owners previously worked in haulage; then, having spotted a gap in the market for professional aviation related haulage, started this business, which rapidly grew to a million pound turnover. The events of September 2001 had a detrimental affect on the company as the cost of increased security checks affected all air freight business. The business has stabilised since, however, in recent years the proprietors have been actively pursuing other business interests and have now decided that this business would benefit from new owners who can focus on returning it to the size, and turnover it was before. The business has previously operated at a level three times what it does today and therefore it should be possible to nurture it back to a similar level. There are also several complimentary activities that could be utilised to grow the business even further, including van rental and taxi work. (Especially bearing in mind the company's airport location.)
