  • This investor-owner remains absent for the most part, investing an average of around 5-6 hours per fortnight on site, primarily liaising with the business's management. Established for many decades, this business has a wonderful cash flow, with its largest warehousing/distribution client representing only 9.82% approx. of annual sales. This business is also the preferred 3PL and an exclusive, contracted provider. Remaining in contract for a high volume of order fulfilment services, a situation that has continued for many years, and one that will remain in contract for many years to come. The top client is one of the world's largest within its product segment – a fast-growing and globally recognised brand!
  • The monthly cashflow is near predictable, as with the volume of stock movement required for a diverse industry clientele. Income is generated from Australia's major transport companies, freight forwarders, fast-moving product producers/distributors and manufacturers of mining, industrial, leisure, personal products and much more. All able to be stored under roof.
  • This business's client payment terms are impressive, with high-volume clients paying promptly, providing no financial concerns for this investor. Able to enjoy the financial proceeds from a diversity of clients, who are high-quality and remain great contributors to the bottom line of this solid investment.
  • Any existing industry business with a plan to implement a strategy of assuming millions of dollars of market share immediately and adding a net income in the millions of dollars, is just the start of something wonderful...
  • This business can select which clients it wants, being a commercial luxury. Not needing to market nor advertise its services for many years (not one cent in 24/25!). As, the existing clients stay, the referrals continue, as well as the reputation-fuelled word of mouth activity, bringing in a constant stream of new inbound client enquiries.
  • With the option for immediate expansion, having yet another warehouse area ready to be assumed soon, able to be filled with clients' stock, as, the national online product ordering rate continues to grow and yield high proceeds for this venture. Now this brand is just waiting for its new owner to take this already profitable enterprise and expand it further. Already offering ample floor area and even more order processing stations are set up, ready to be turned on, able to facilitate even more growth immediately, without adding another warehouse.
  • Yes, the client and national market demand for 3PL and associated product fulfilment warehousing services, coupled with 'last mile deliveries', means that this offers clients an all-in-one option, which is convenient, to say the least.
  • This business supports and services many of Australia's main transport company brands (who also continue to grow their annual sales). This dynamic means that much of this business's sales growth is a direct result of having chosen the right clients - a powerful mix of existing businesses and large corporate companies who are invoiced regularly. Financial and highly profitable, these high-growth companies just make for a valuable investment – what more could a 3PL ask for? These clients' products remain in constant demand; therefore, these many services continue to be rendered, on-going.
  • This business, due to its high stock volume of picking and dispatch activity, commands one of the best discounts from Australia Post, that any business could ever hope to receive. Thus, remaining even more attractive to large companies who wish to outsource to this 3PL and share in this saving. This business then integrates with the client's software management systems, providing a sophisticated real-time inventory transparency.
  • Yes, it sounds like this business can offer it all - and it does, and the clients know it, hence its popularity. And this is likely to extend to the potential investor market who are reading this now. Once they realise that this well-recognised and trusted brand is now available for transfer (after a wait of more than the last decade and a half), we expect to receive many requests for this business's detailed profile.
  • Complete retirement of this already semi-retired investor is motivating this genuine transfer. So, move fast and request your own copy of its highly detailed profile. The profitability won't disappoint, nor the quality clientele, the consistent and fast flowing funds into the bank account, an investor lifestyle that's well deserve. Enjoy the on-going support of a large team being transferred as with a high value of a well-maintained fleet of in-house owned trucks. This business only completes local SE QLD deliveries (mainly throughout the greater Brisbane region). This business being overseen by an extremely capable and experienced business management team.
  • Not much left to desire when you own this business and its package of 'one stop' warehousing and transport services, being the answer to most companies' product distribution requirements. There are still pallet bays ready to receive new or existing client stock, as this business's next move or when under a new owner's direction, is to take all its 'low hanging fruit' opportunities that are ready for conversion and make a highly rewarding, proverbial 'fruit salad' with it.
  • This is no ordinary business, as anyone can become its new owner/investor (this owner had no prior industry knowledge, skill or experience and still enjoyed success). Due to having a largely absent owner, all operational procedures are well-documented and software-supported, with management and staff also being multi-skilled.
  • Significant profits are being made, and there's simply more where this came from, as existing clients continue to expand their operations and push for more products to be picked and dispatched.
  • For a new owner or existing industry business, this owner is waiting for a party smart and keen enough to find out just how financially successful their future could be when owning this large and highly successful 3PL operation.
  • There is ample more potential for growth within both the warehousing and transport segments of this business. All is ready for the taking. This owner welcomes a genuine and motivated individual with a keen eye for expanding business with new and existing clients, including corporate and global clients, who want to remain loyal and aligned with this highly supportive service provider.

This transfer is solely for the purpose of genuine retirement. Available now for only $4.59 Million WIWO
