Proudly an approved agent for many of the industry’s top and hard-to-secure brands (with supplier credit accounts). Part of a collective buying group by choice, this is the popular brand for thousands of clients who require work apparel. Branded in-house, businesses mainly fund purchases, all thanks to WH&S laws that require this type of product range to be worn.

Sales grew yet again in 25/26! Having done so since 2024 ...
· Established for many years and having only two owners in more than 30 years, it is simply time for this owner to retire from this business and industry, after more than a decade of trading to suit one’s own lifestyle.
· This is one of those ‘salt of the earth’, high repeat transaction operations, providing products that nearly every local business requires for their workers. With a central software management system that also supports stock management, this business prides itself on ensuring it stocks its top-selling products, ready to provide to the client who needs them today. Therefore, there is less wait time for clients, making this a popular choice for thousands of local businesses, who simply email/call or come into this business, or simply sends their staff to place volume-based orders, for all things workwear.
· This business and its staff greet everyone who attends this warehouse and product showroom, with this one owner able to remain back of house (financial management and stock ordering mainly etc.) but can support on the counter, if required. With so many new, high repeat and returning client transactions across its 5 days and 4 hours open on Saturdays, there is so much under the ‘hood’ of this operation.
· The uniqueness of this operation is that it also offers its business clients the convenience and speed of having its embroidery machines and trained staff in-house, ready to brand any apparel or item (caps etc.) with a client’s business name and logo.
· With its sales growing organically in 25/26, this is the sure sign that a new owner will bring the renewed passion, enthusiasm and zest for activating growth strategies. Very little has been done for years, online or otherwise, yet it simply persists in growing, all thanks to providing what so many more workers need to wear day to day.
· It enjoys being the preferred supplier to mainly businesses, being distribution agent for many of the industry’s most sought after, requested and top selling work boots, hi vis gear, and workwear brands. Made to last, and stocking high-quality products, these are usually available in stock to be supplied over the counter or via courier, the day they are requested (or next day).

Clients find this business via its website, which could be upgraded, and a webstore added. Grow the online and passive income from this portal to your heart’s content. Currently most orders are paid upfront, from any source.
· This owner has set in place a highly supportive credit policy. Only a handful of credit accounts to government or high volume and trusted business / corporate clientele, for the balance, clients pay 100% upfront before the products are supplied or dispatched.
· This high level of sales and transactional momentum is being generated by this brand’s extensive trading history and long term, existing base of loyal clients, who continue to refer new business. Being independently owned and branded since its inception.
· These days, suppliers are reducing their total number of stockists and agent representatives. Given this 31-year history of purchasing the very best brands, (which clients seek out actively), this business is the proud holder of what most new businesses can’t be awarded – a supplier credit account for these top selling and notary brands! Especially for work boots.
· The order activity will delight any new owner, being made up mainly of high repeat transactions from returning business clients, or they are sending in their staff to purchase in their stead.
· No active marketing or website optimisation/email campaigning has been executed, yet profit ensues, and it has been generated reliably. Refer to the last 3 years of trading, the profit has remained ever so consistent. These types of workwear products will always remain in constant demand and are required by workplace legislation.
· No deliveries, products are couriered or picked up by the client. By having access to thousands of products, and able to brand the apparel with company logos in-house, there are greater profits to be made by owning this outlet and combined warehouse.
· Commercial risks remain low when most of your money is received upfront, and there remains such a good spread of clients and industries. Clients need to buy these products throughout the year, no matter the economic climate.
· The new owner need not have any background, skill or knowledge in this type of business or industry, as all will be trained. This is a simple business model, with this owner providing a highly supportive transition period. There are also very long-term and senior staff in place. They can manage the outlet if the owner chooses to be absent.
