What the business does
The business delivers a mix of workshop fabrication, on‑site repairs, maintenance, and new works for existing industrial clients. Typical projects include the design, fabrication and installation of structural components, guards, access systems, frames, and equipment supports, alongside regular breakdown and preventative maintenance. Work is consistent, repeatable and built on enduring trust with key customers.

Why it's essential and resilient
Demand is driven by safety, wear, and production needs — not discretionary spending. The services provided are mandatory for compliance and operational continuity in the industrial sector. The business has remained stable through economic cycles and disruptions, including COVID‑19, reporting no bad debts and consistent profitability year after year.

Investment highlights

Operations and premises
The business operates from two modern industrial workshop units in a strategic northern suburb location. Current premises comfortably support further growth of approximately 50% without relocation. Rent is competitively priced, and a new long‑term lease is available.

There are 3 full‑time equivalent employees in the business, plus the owner.

The employees remain with the business, but all day‑to‑day staffing, HR, and employment obligations (wages, entitlements, supervision and performance management) sit with the new owner from settlement onward as part of normal transfer‑of‑business arrangements in WA.

Growth opportunities

• Introduce modest marketing or digital visibility (website, Google presence, case studies)
• Deepen engagement with existing clients via proactive maintenance scheduling
• Expand into adjacent sectors such as materials handling, manufacturing, and mining services
• Add skilled trades to shorten lead times and increase throughput
  Even small initiatives could translate directly into higher turnover and profit.

Handover and support
A structured handover of up to four weeks is included, with vendor assistance on quoting, scheduling, client introductions and operational systems. Additional support may be negotiated to ensure a smooth transition.

Ideal buyer
This business suits a hands‑on tradesperson, engineer, or fabrication supervisor looking to step into ownership — or an established industrial firm seeking a bolt‑on service division with strong recurring revenue, valuable client relationships and an impressive ROI.
