Established in the Early 1970s and Rebranded More than 36 Years Ago By this Absent Investor, this is a rare business that ticks all the right boxes! This is a Market Leading Wholesaler/Distributor and National Online Supplier of a Large Range of Cleaning/Chemical, Packaging, Food Service, Hygiene/Washroom, Janitorial, Consumable Products, and Commercial Kitchen/Catering Equipment. Distributor for Top National Product Brand. These Formal and Informal Agencies Secure Always in Constant Demand Consumable Products for this Business’s Large Business-to-Business Wholesale and Fast-Growing Online Client Base. This is a Dominant Player Offering a Diverse Range of Suppliers, Products, and Clientele to a New Owner or Existing Industry Player. Includes a Multi-Income Model, with a Fast-Growing Volume of Paid Upfront, Passive, and Online Sales – Even Posting Double-Digit Online Growth Over Recent Years!
· Its integrated systems and order fulfilment sophistication is supported by multiple software management systems and highly effective and established procedures. The GM, many managers, and extended team operate this fully managed investment on behalf of its absent owner. You have found proverbial ‘gold’ here, experiencing record high sales, gross and net profits to date (FY25). This is one of the best investments an investor could find!
· Here is the summation of a multitude of combined elements that have made this time-tested and high-sales and profit growth operation a ‘stand out’ when it comes to being the holder of a very large, multi-million-dollar segment of the local and growing online market, nationally. This is a market leader within its space, making the generation of passive and high-repeat transactional income, easier than for most businesses or industry players – and there is good reason for this success! This wholesale/distribution and national online direct to client operation is proud to remain ‘set apart’ from the rest, having what others don’t and standing tall among the largest. Supplying the market with more than 4,500 consumable products (mainly) which always remain in high demand irrespective of economic cycle. Proven as recession proof in every way, as this is a resilient business that has stood the test of time, with the products it supplies always remaining in constant demand.
· With its long-term General Manager in place, who wishes to remain on to support a lengthy (a few years) & successful transition to a new owner, even this manager has an Assistant Manager currently being groomed to step into his role, if the new owner desires it, who is also long term employed. This mitigation of transfer risk is just the beginning of the benefits of owning this investment. The large staff have remained incredibly loyal to this multi-brand investment, able to support its retired and absent investor.
· This business is positioned in such a way that it is the assigned distributor and representative agency for many of the nation’s leading and most sought-after brands in its industry, providing products that a diversity of business clients want or need to buy. With supplier agreements ranging from exclusive, sole or preferred/internally registered supplier (both formal and informal). This enterprise consistently delivers value-for-money products that clients can rely upon, and they purchase often, including many times a week. Its substantial buying power through selective buying group alliances often makes it challenging for even publicly listed companies to compete with it, securing its position as a trusted and proud market leader and constant repeat supplier to its loyal business and online clients.
· Many managers and the large, extended and well-trained team have continued to support and grow the day-to-day trading for this absent investor. Includes the transfer of the GM, operations, warehouse, sales/marketing managers and CFO, plus many more members. This business’s staff are highly experienced and share a long-term tenure, having remained staff managed for the last 34 years! This business’s mega million-dollar trading success, high performance, record sales and profit growth experienced to date, is due to many combined elements.
· Renowned for providing a high quality, personalised, highly responsive service and supplying of many sought after national and leading brands, clients always require these essential products and continue to return to purchase them regularly. Its wholesale business clients include many schools/childcares, aged care facilities, retirement/nursing homes, related businesses/establishments, hospitals, franchises notary brands, government funded clientele, offices, contract cleaners, accommodations, clubs, bowls clubs, pubs, taverns, hotels, motels, corporates, hospitality and general businesses.
· Due to the sheer breadth of this business’s overall product offering, its thousands of active clients have continued to post an impressive level of loyalty, returning often to purchase their consumable and equipment products. This has ensured that these client operations remain legally compliant and successful. From its prime and convenient location, its market continues to expand nationally, actively selling each day to any type of business, government funded client or consumer online, being located throughout our nation.
· This multi-premise and purpose-built operation also offers its new owner or existing, strategically aligned industry business with ample capacity for immediate sales growth and product storage, providing one of the very best ‘bolt on’ opportunities one could find on the market today. Not being available for transfer for nearly 40 years!
· With multiple outlets, a large warehouse, and ample expansion possibilities, there is even potential to take this endeavour towards achieving a $20-30 Million dollar turnover, per annum within a relatively short time frame after transfer
· Its national, paid upfront and passively derived online product sales volumes see that it converts more sales, further adding to the overall appeal of a constant stream of small through to large business or government-funded client purchases arriving each day, generating thousands of dollars via the website/s. And wait, to fulfill many of these orders an email can be sent to suppliers so that the product order can be fulfilled, via their extended drop-shipping services being extended to this market partner. It is literally money for emails!
· This is one formidable market player, it is not easy to compete against this operation. Offering the national market exclusively branded websites and capturing a growing number of online product orders, in addition to its strong base of wholesale client transactions. The result online alone has been a massive sales growth of 198.6% (approx.) experienced since 2022. Web sales doubled from 21/22 to 23/24 and have since increase again in 24/25! The hard work has been done, and these sites are ready for continued growth and well supported by offshore ecommerce contractor staff who are specialists in their areas!
· The potential for further growth (in many directions) is sitting latent within this large operation, expected to beckon the best owner, absent investor or strategically aligned industry player to make the best of what’s already in place and continue to build upon it. Grow it as it is, dovetail this into an existing business, expand product lines with your existing product range – the choices for growth are endless!
· Poised to be transferred now, let the new owner enjoy this high net income yield, being driven by its collective brand reputation and team. Immediate growth can be facilitated by simply adding more products to the range and then uploading them online. Proven recently, as only a small portion of this business’s product range is represented online, thus far. With the volumes being generated with what has been launched, is enough to motivate any new owner or investor to ensure hundreds, if not thousands more are launched, and soon!
· This business is ready for its local, internal direct-to-client and national online marketing and advertising to be stepped up, proving ultimately effective when more attention can be focused. Add more wholesale business/govt funded clients to its already extensive delivery runs, an obvious strategy for immediate expansion. The brands and products this business has access are in demand by clients around Australia and there is existing infrastructure and immediate capacity to keep growing nationally.
· This business boasts a massive $34 return for each dollar spent on Google AdWords advertising, meaning that it has only just ‘scratched the surface’ when it comes to driving even more online and passive income into its bank account. With many millions of dollars already landing via repeat and return wholesale client transactions, so much more could be done by its new owner to drive its sales upwards.
· The suppliers’ drop shipping services provide a time and costs efficient way to make money, reducing product touches and labour costs. This segment is ready to be grown substantially, with the support of its existing suppliers.
- The long-term tenure of both client and supplier relationships often ranges up to and can even surpass the last 3 decades! This business has a history of strong referrals from existing customers who often tell their network “Don’t bother looking anywhere else!”
· Having a history of importing a selection of products directly, there are also many more product lines that are ready to be imported, in addition to incontinence/nappies, paper, washroom and cleaning products etc. This potential includes greater scope for introduction of own brand products which could add further high margins to this already impressive performance investment.
· A long lease is on offer to the new owner positioned within a massive and diverse industry region that surrounds this business’s head office and large area warehouse. This business resides within one of the fastest growing regions of Australia, with its surrounding population continuing to build organically, so converting sales is occurring naturally, even by default. For an industry player already established in Melbourne, Sydney, or Brisbane, this could result in a multi-million-dollar boon for any existing player looking to immediately assume a massive market share. This is a trusted investment; its supplier and client loyalty are what most business owners only dream about.
· With ample capacity for scaling, given its current resources under one roof, this absent investor welcomes a new private owner or industry player who wants to make their life or existing operation easier and more profitable by acquiring this highly successful and well-entrenched business, within its markets and the many communities it supplies into.
· Not only is this a well-managed operation, but all its activity is also measured and reported on in real time with a strong emphasis on having accurate and timely information to support astute decision making. After so many years in the industry, the business has developed tailored reporting, and this is used to constantly improve and drive greater profitability year on year. 23.2% approx. sales growth in sales from FY22 to FY24! Even the menial tasks and online marketing are supported by experienced VA’s and professionals, based on and offshore. Offshore team members are significantly less expensive than those hired in-house.
· There is ample more market share that is ready for conversion, surrounding this business and given its national footprint for its market leading branded product distribution, so much more is possible. Enjoy this juggernaut of a business, one that is more diversified than most, and maybe even more unique, as it offers a lower risk and higher return on investment than most operating within this space. Unlimited market potential, sought after products, established team and procedures, diversified client base, recession proof operation and product range, strong profit and cash generation – this is one of those rare gems of a business that just makes owning and investing in a business so much more rewarding!
