Franchise terms
This is a franchise for the island of Menorca. The franchise would be passed to the new owner and a new 10 year renewable agreement would be set up. There are no royalties whatsoever to be paid, the only commitment being to purchase the machines and filter equipment from the main company.
Business description
Based on the Balearic Island of Menorca this is an opportunity to purchase an established business which sells and rents water filtration systems to both residential and commercial clients.
Property information
- Real Estate:
- Lease
- Lease terms:
- We are currently 2 years into an 8 year lease of a unit in a prime corner position in the main industrial estate. We have negotiated a very good rent which compares very favourably to the rents of similar properties.
- Location:
- Prime front line, corner location within the Mahon industrial estate which is on the main road only one kilometre from the city centre, with parking facilities. The unit is approx. 120m2 and comprises large, bright showroom, workshop/storage area and toilet. The showroom has corporate signage, is well lit and has full height double glazed windows to two sides. The is an exterior illuminated box sign. There is a fully serviced and liveried Renault Kangoo Van included in the sale.
Other information
- Expansion potential:
- Expansion potential is almost limitless, as we have the franchise for the whole island. We are coming towards the end of our third year in the business and have worked very hard to raise its profile on the island. We have achieved this and the company is now a recognised and respected name.
- Competition / Market:
- There are a few alternative filter systems in the market place, but none of them pose a threat, as we are the only company to offer full service and maintenance of all our systems. Bottled water is obviously our main threat, but the recent bad publicity towards the bottled water market has strengthened our position.
- Support & training:
- Full training would be given by the current owners. Should any interested parties be looking purely for an investment opportunity, either or both of the current owners would be willing to run the business on an employee basis.
