Key Highlights
Description
This listing represents a highly profitable and well-established wholesale distribution and delivery company operating in the Charleston, SC metro area. With over 40 years of family-owned operation, the business boasts average gross sales of approximately $3 million and discretionary earnings around $190,000 over the last three years. The simple business model, loyal customer base (industrial, institutional, commercial, and residential), and a strong reputation for quality and reliability make this an attractive opportunity. Significant growth potential exists due to minimal recent marketing efforts and the seller's practice of turning down new business outside their current service area. The sale price does not include the trucks, which are currently leased from a sister company, but their purchase can be negotiated. Serious inquiries requiring an NDA and buyer qualification screening are expected.
