Est. 25yrs, flexible hr, homebased commercial cleaning business #419
Established for 25 years and only two owners to date. This is a part-time, flexible hour and lifestyle supportive, home based commercial cleaning business. Owner invests minimal hours, whilst the team of cleaners complete the pre-booked and high repeat jobs - during the week mainly (avoids weekends). Specialising in providing office, commercial common area and business cleaning. Offering a general cleaning service to a diversity of corporate/commercial and well known business brands. The largest client contributes only 10% (approx.) of annual sales, providing a secure mix of long term, reputable and great paying businesses or management companies. Income is generated from kindergartens, sml to lrg offices, supermarkets, common areas for body corporates, commercial sites and multi business complexes (grouped franchises etc.). This business profits nearly 40 - 50 cents (approx.) for every dollar earned, having many long term cleaners and the capacity to take on even more cleans. Services commercial sites throughout the greater Brisbane region.
- This owner of 15 years trading, has already made the move into a semi-retired life already, having relocated well away from this business's client servicing regions. In fact, being so proud investing so few hours per week. Whats done in the field consists of mainly visiting not cleaning sites on a regular basis, this being lefdt to the capable staff. The tasks of this owner are mainly optional and by choice. Easily replaced by staff, but there is enjoyment in doing these few visits.
- The new owner of this businss requires no prior industry knowledge, skill or background. Able to pick up easily from where this owner leaves off - after retiring altogether.
- An existing cleaning industry business would benefit greatly from picking up this number of quality business to business, corporate and high calibre commercial clients, as from the day of transfer.
- With so little to no marketing or advertising done over the last decade, there is not even a website or posting on any social medias. The quality of cleans speak for themselves, allowing its clients the freedom to refer at their will and whim. This is what has generated another year of sales growth in 24/25! With the new owner able to determine the level of performance of this business, which could be even higher in 25/26.
- When you study more than the last half decade of tax figures, you soon come to realise that his owner has enjoyed similar level of sales per annum for many years. You can't help but to consider that this is no accident. This owner protects a free and flexible hour lifestyle, which has always stood paramount.
- By not actively growing this enterprise, and relying on the consistent level of income, which continues to flow in weekly. The fact remains that this is comfort alone. But, for the new owner of this cleaning service business, the stage has already been set. This enterprise offers all the main 'value markers' one needs to turn opportunity into more money. All is just sitting latent at this business's base, ready to be converted into more clients and resultant income!
- When you have these types of clients, commercial property management companies, they are in business to manage many, not just a few business sites/buildings. This business attracts notable clients, who make this independently owned brand their preferred choice for commercial cleaning. Setting, and even feeling as though they forget, but just continue to pay, on an on-going basis. Many have remained within this fold for the last decade or more!
- The difference with this operation is the fact that something must be very, very right. As, most business owner's don't have this much time and task freedom. Free time is enjoyed week in and week out by this owner – even though when asked, a cheeky smile persists, as if this owner knows something others don't...
- So luxurious are these optional owner tasks, that you don't even need to live close to or within this business's servicing area. Already proven by the current owner's location.
- This owner does what's enjoyed mainly, plus the required financial and owner related payments from the bank account, to staff and cleaning product suppliers. Cleaning products are also wholesaled and supplied to existing business clients achieving rewarding margins. This area of supply within this business offers one of the first ways to generate even more profit!
- For cleaners to carry out the majority, if not the regular commercial cleans, which are mainly pre-booked in advance, just means there are systems in place and a great team who have remained loyal to this brand, to date.
- With capacity to complete more cleans per week, the option to convert the current decade long draught of active advertising, marketing and business development initatives, is ready to be broken – even long awaited.
- If only a new owner could come and want to lift sales even higher – this motivation is the key to growth. This business continues to grow naturally anyway. Give this a small or big nudge, which could prove advantageous.
- All is provided by this business, ready to take this solid base of clients, and just step right in. Watch the bank balance show similar income per week and lap up the home based and convenient lifestyle. Save and make money, whilst providing a service that society and businesses as a whole, will always require.
- Many strict workplace, health and safety laws require constant common area cleaning.
- All this as a platform to grow from. All that's needed now is a new and enthused owner of an existing cleaning company, prepared to 'shine a light' on all the areas that offer near immediate growth potential. Grow or leave this business as it is. Going just fine, and continue to enjoy the profitability. Able to do less, not more. Support yourself with this steady income steam, providing a wonderful lifestyle, so you remain well funded!
- Transferred due to this owner already practicing semi-retirement. Having already left this region, knowing that this business will be snapped up by the right owner. This being best for this body of business/corporate and commercial clients and existing staff. Of course, there are ample rewards on offer for owning this commercial cleaning business. It is positioned as one of the best, having such high quality and long term trust among clients. This being far from 'run of the mill'. Differentiated businesses usually span more than a quarter of a century of trading, so get amongst this, and you may never look back…short of riding into the sunset, this owner has pretty much already done this, so here it is for the taking!
This motivated 'retiree to be' is offering this transfer and all that's included within this business's package, an affordable and value for money transfer amount of just $399K WIWO
