The current owner lives a long way away from the business and only relieves staff on occasions it is possible to also employ a casual employee to fill that role should the owner wish to do nothing. This arrangement allows the owner to work low hours and take holidays.

NO RELIANCE ON SALES STAFF - The clear majority of sales are simply self-propelled which means that the current owner does not have the overhead of running a sales force. However, it also puts the new owner in the enviable position of having at hand a means by which demand could almost certainly be increased if need be.

 

Not effected by competitors -The business has never had any problem in handling competition. Its main competitors are big box stores which have been present for a prolonged period of time.
