Established Coatings Manufacturer | Melbourne | Turnkey Opportunity
A rare chance to acquire a well-established, Australian-owned coatings manufacturer, trading for around 20 years from its own fully equipped plant in Melbourne.
This is a genuine turnkey opportunity. The business brings an in-house formulation lab, two established brands serving trade and retail customers, and a long-serving team. The current owners are retiring, and the business is set up to run under a single operator.
Highlights:
- Around 20 years of continuous trading, with sales spread across multiple coatings categories and both trade and retail channels
- FY26 Revenue of ~$2.0m and normalised EBITDA of ~$500k (owner-operator basis)
- Proprietary formulations, registered brand IP and an independently tested product range
- Fully equipped manufacturing plant with in-house formulation lab and production capability
- High barriers to entry: specialist manufacturing capability, formulation know-how and long-standing supplier relationships
- Recently expanded distribution and online sales channels, giving clear growth levers
- Outgoing owners willing to provide ongoing support to transfer knowledge and customer relationships
Ideal Buyer:
A hands-on operator looking to step into a single role, or an Australian or international paint and coatings manufacturer seeking an established local manufacturing base. For overseas groups, the business offers immediate entry to the Australian market with an operating plant, proven formulations, established brands and existing distribution, without the cost and time of a greenfield start.
Interested parties will be required to sign a Confidentiality Agreement (CA) to receive further information.
