01 · THE OVERVIEW

About this business

In the broker's words

Full description, as written by the broker

Established saw and knife sharpening business with an authorised sawmill equipment sales centre attached, north of Brisbane. 25 years trading and $2.4M revenue. $1,500,000 + stock.

Let's get straight to it. This is a niche you don't see for sale often. Precision bandsaw and knife sharpening is the high-margin engine, around half of revenue. It sits alongside the supply of blades, consumables and portable sawmills as an authorised sales centre for one of the world's best-known sawmill brands. Customers come back for sharpening and buy their blades, parts and machines from the same counter. That's what makes them sticky.

WHY IT STACKS UP

  • Revenue of circa $2.4M (FY2026), up from $1.45M in FY2021
  • Owner earnings (SDE) of circa $443,000 (FY2026), already adjusted for a market rent on the premises
  • Trading since 2000, with a strong reputation built almost entirely on referral
  • Authorised dealer status for a leading global portable sawmill brand
  • Two income streams: technical sharpening services, and equipment and consumables sales, including online
  • A team of 5 full-time and 3 part-time staff, plus the 2 working owners
  • Specialist sharpening plant and equipment included in the sale

WHO IT SERVES

Commercial sawmills, timber processors and recyclers, furniture makers and woodworkers, mobile sawmill contractors, and rural and agricultural customers across SEQ and nationally.

ROOM TO GROW

Lift margin on machine and supply sales, which have grown fast but been priced sharply. Push online sales harder, add sharpening capacity and extend geographic reach. None of this needs major capex.

WHO SUITS IT

A hands-on owner-operator with a trade or technical background. A tooling, industrial supply or timber industry business wanting vertical integration. Or a buyer after a niche with real barriers to entry.

THE DEAL

$1,500,000 + stock at value (approx. $100,000). Asset sale. The vendors own the premises and will offer a new long-term lease. They're retiring and committed to a proper handover, including staying on in a consulting role to pass on the technical know-how.

Full financials and the Information Memorandum go to qualified buyers after a Confidentiality Agreement is signed. All enquiries strictly confidential.
