Business description

Clients include mainly small through to large corporate companies. Supplying warehouses, wholesalers, Logistics – 3/4PL providers and industry businesses who require racking to store equipment or products. Sales grew by 9.8% (approx.) in 25/26, resulting in a massive net income uplift of approximately 32.65% (approx.). Operating costs remaining largely static, plus, product prices were also lifted. Much of this additional income fell straight to the bottom line as net income (generating a very high annual yield – has been this way for many years to date). Its gross profit margin even increased by 4 points - posting 55% (approx.). This business’s model includes low overheads and a highly competitive model, resulting in being ultra-profitable! This business remains in constant demand, needed when businesses upsize and downsize (recession proof), or when they simply need more shelving … Also includes 2 other even higher yielding income streams!


  • Being established for more than the last two decades means that this business’s tenure has gathered a large 5,000+ client contact base. They having been supplied by this business over the years. With the transfer of a core group of businesses who require this business’s products and pallet racking inspection services repeatedly (required annually, by law).
  • This business has always laid claim to being a direct importer of new pallet racking primarily, and also offering the added bonus of supplying even high profit margin, 2nd hand pallet racking, plus, basking in the perpetual and high repeat racking inspection income, being generated almost predictably per month.
  • There are also many other ancillary storage and related shelving products on offer to clients.
  • With no other direct to client marketing or advertising, other than consistent Google Adwords campaigning, new clients find their way here by way of online searches, (via popular keywords) or referred by existing clients. This is all thanks to a long trading history and a wonderful industry reputation, based upon responsive servicing and having the products available to supply, when clients need them on site.
  • The longevity of this business means that this business has never needed to market directly to its existing client database of more than 5,000+ – Never in its history! The clients have just kept coming, generating a relatively consistent sales volume, each and every year (for a minimum of the last half decade that we have on record).
  • The vast majority of sales are generated by the large business-to-business clientele, returning when they require more pallet racking, shelving, related storage solutions and componentry.
  • This business and industry is unique, as no matter the state of the economy, its wins its sales. When a client relocates to a new warehouse, factory or commercial premises, even if only expanding within its current building, relocating to increase their premise footprint, or when things are tougher and a client needs to reduce their premise size – this business is still called for new or 2nd hand pallet racking.
  • It is renowned for providing high quality, yet price competitive racking, meeting Australian standards. Its sales volumes allows it to import in bulk. Then the added option to purchase 2nd hand racking and being able to keep clients compliant per year, as the team attend client’s sites to provide high profit margin inspection services.
  • When an economy tightens, clients need to down size their operations, or relocate when they outgrow their premises. New pallet racking is required in both cases. Let’s explain why… there is a fundamental cost when taking down racking and relocating it to a new site. The logistics is difficult, its time consuming and cost prohibitive. Combine this with it always being used, having stood for years within a business (hit repeatedly by forklifts etc.). So, when a company needs to relocate at the end of a lease, or when entering new premises, it makes financial and commercial sense to purchase new racking and sell the old (or give it away for free to this supplier), even paying to have the old removed, which is convenient for the client when they are moving.
  • This operation can then re-sell the 2nd hand racking for a higher margin on average, when compared to importing and supplying new. There are many “golden” profit opportunities to be had.
  • Many businesses require shelving to make their operations more efficient and effective. Positioned in a way that supports daily operating. In some cases, clients come to this business to support and supply them with a whole new shelving/storage layout, to make their businesses even more effective when fulfilling their client orders. There are ample benefits in a client getting their racking and use of space right!
  • This business has posted consistent sales year after year (no matter the state of the greater economy).
  • Now, let’s talk about the legislated requirements that generates this business even more income. The OH&S laws require that every company who relies on pallet racking must have their racking system inspected, per annum. This routine inspection also gives rise to resultant sales opportunities for this supplier – the inspection highlighting the need to repair or replace uprights or damaged components.
  • Yes, this is yet another income stream for this investment – perpetual in nature, and providing this operation with a near predictable annuity income to profit from. This income just keeps landing in the bank account repeatedly.
  • There is even ample more profits made by actively promoting this in-house service – which is always in constant demand! There is ample more that a new owner could do to market and pre-book many more racking inspections per month. Why not provide what your clients must complete by law. This business could make it easy for clients to call and email in to book their inspection, or to be reminded when the staff are arriving on site to complete it (booked in advance).
  • This business has proven highly competitive as an independent brand, mainly due to its reliable offshore racking supply. This produces highly favourable profit margins, which just gives the new owner more reward for growing the sales.
  • Being a direct importer primarily means specialising in the supply of new racking and storage/shelving products. The 2nd hand racking sales provides a higher margin “cream on top”. With the racking inspection income being yet another bonus. This annual visit provides an underpinning of an already positive cashflow, servicing high repeat transaction clients.
  • After 21 years of overseeing this operation (mainly office based), it has been 21 years with the support of senior and highly experienced staff on team – within the warehouse and out at client sites. This owner is reluctantly giving up this high net profit business, being at retirement age.

Just wait until you read the detailed business profile (email us now to request your own copy for review), and you’ll see how high the net income yield is! It will definitely put a smile on your face… This net income is a secret that no one has known but this owner - until now! All this is waiting for the right owner, who needs no prior industry background or skills, as, all will be trained during a highly supportive transition period.

This volume sales, direct importer, low cost model, producing this high net profit – is a total value package being transferred for just $1.99 Million + SAV ($450K approx.)
