BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
One of the UK’s leading companies operating in the fire protection sector specializing in Fire Safety Training, Inspections, Investigations and Risk Assessments

Ref.CC059
Location UK
Asking Price £
Established in 1994, this business is arguably one of the leading companies in the fire protection industry, specializing in virtually all aspects of fire safety. Set up by an ex-fire officer of the Fire Brigade and a member of the Institution of Fire Engineers, this company has an in-depth knowledge of fire precautions, and boasts a highly qualified team including several highly skilled and experienced professional ex-Fire Brigade Officers.

Operating throughout the UK , Northern Ireland & Worldwide , this business is a virtual one stop shop – providing a wide range of services associated with fire safety including Risk Assessments, Fire Inspections – a large proportion of its work is undertaken at the detailed planning stage of the construction of buildings, Fire Investigation Reports and Fire Safety Training. Such is the status of the business it is also frequently called upon for Expert Witness assignments.

This business can boast an enviable Client list throughout both the public and private sectors. It also works with some of the UK’s leading universities and has a longstanding agreement with a major Local Education Authority dealing with all of the schools within the county. Some of its training courses and Inspections have taken place worldwide

Within the construction sector this business works very closely with architects and developers on new build and refurbishment projects to provide innovative solutions, increasing building flexibility, reducing build cost and providing potentially increased working space that may result in increased revenue.

Expansion Potential
This business is operating within a highly complex and fast changing legislative framework. Legislation in the area of fire safety will continue to tighten ensuring a constant stream of work for this business. With a very strong, loyal customer base and an excellent team, this business is ideally placed to take full advantage of legislative developments as they occur.

With an enviable reputation and renowned for always meeting if not exceeding Client expectations there is an outstanding opportunity to build on the existing services and customer base of this company. With the business operated to meet the lifestyle requirements of the owner, and with high levels of repeat business, there has been little need for ‘business development’ in recent times. With strong demand, combined with a capacity to increase turnover, a new owner contributing fresh ideas, particularly in the areas of sales and marketing, motivation, enthusiasm but perhaps most importantly additional time commitment, will have every advantage of building on an excellent platform.
