💬Harry & Carter’s thoughts:

This company has been operating in the casual and outdoor furniture space for seven decades. The company is well-established, featuring a factory that produces high-quality furnishings within its niche market. The company handles its own sewing and metal fabrication and is conveniently located near South Florida ports for international shipping. An experienced management team appears to handle most of the day-to-day operations - the current owner is relatively hands-off, working only on a limited, part-time basis.

  • Revenue: $1,800,000

  • 14 experienced, full-time workers

  • Owner willing to stay on as employee

❓️Who are the biggest competitors?
❓️What happens if the real estate market slows down?

4. Residential & Commercial Fencing Company

  • Location: Shasta County, CA

  • Asking Price: $1,000,000

  • EBITDA: $300,000

  • Multiple: 3.3x

  • Revenue: $1,200,000

  • EBITDA Margin: 25%

  • Employees: 6

  • List Date: 7/13/24

  • Reason for selling: Retirement

💬Harry & Carter’s thoughts:

This local fencing company primarily handles residential jobs (90%) with some commercial work (10%). They are trained and equipped to perform all types of fencing, with about 75% of current demand for wood fencing. The team includes six full-time employees, featuring a lead carpenter and a metal specialist with 37 years of experience handling most of the metal fabrication work. We like that the business currently relies solely on word-of-mouth and referrals without advertising (upside growth potential).

  • Residential (90%) & Commercial (10%)

  • Experienced staff of 6 full-time workers

  • No need for office space overhead
