Parts Distribution, Home Based

Distribution business to a specialized segment of the agricultural and farming industry.

This seven-year old business has established a strong relationship with customers in Alabama, Florida, Mississippi and Texas to supply parts, equipment and machinery used in a specialized segment of agricultural and farming. They do not carry a large inventory, but get shipments from suppliers as needed to fill every customer’s individual order. Most orders come to the businesses location (home based) and then reshipped by UPS or motor freight to the end customer. This category of agricultural and farming has not been affected by the recent slowdown and orders continue to come in.

One of the principals (the owner’s wife and partner) had a serious medical problem in the summer of 2009 and sales did slow down while both principals were involved if this personal situation. Everything is OK now and business is going back to the previous sales.

Plenty of opportunity for growth with better financing if a new owner can build the inventory and do some volume purchasing. Dealing in used equipment will also be an area for increase revenues. All current customers and potential customers are on ACT database to use as the only form of adverting through email flyers.

This business is home based and can be relocated very easily.
