BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
International Sports Brand for Sale
Ref.AH133
Location Kent
Asking Price £ 595,000
Business was set up 13 years ago as a goalkeeper specialist brand. It quickly established itself as a niche brand, specializing in high-end gloves. Goalkeeper clothing and accessories are also made by the company.

Company Ethos:

The company takes pride in providing a specialist service to retailers and goalkeepers of all levels. This business has around 50 contracted endorsees from all divisions in the English and Scottish football leagues, as well as keepers in Saudi, Poland and other countries. The company prides itself on high quality and excellent service.

Business Strategy:

Whilst the company has excellent relations with some of the UK's biggest goalkeeping specialist retailers, sales overseas have not been developed to an extent it could have been. Current sales in Czech Republic, Germany, Poland and America are minimal but the opportunity for growth via distributors or licensees is incredible. Careful sponsorship plays a big part of the business sales strategy. A distribution agreement has just been signed with a major outlet in Canada.

Customer Profile:

Company has an established customer base in the UK and Europe, including major on-line retailers (inc. Just Keepers, Great Save & Pro Direct) and multinational companies (inc. Sports Direct). Clients also include many Premier and Football League football teams.

Management & Organisation:

The business is run by two staff, which split their time between the owner's two businesses some marketing and design are subcontracted out. For the past three years the owner has spent more time developing a consultancy business and has not been involved in the business as much as is needed.

Key Growth Opportunities:

The opportunities for growth are significant. Being a wholly owned niche brand, sales are not restricted to any particular country.
