As commented on earlier – this business has a basic product platform and simple systems which are readily learnt and managed. The new owner may come from a general business, food, catering, merchandising, sales, distribution background. A personal skill in managing people, and dealing with customers on a daily basis would be helpfu l- as it is seen that the new owner/s would fulfil the marketing role.

The business operates a single daytime shift – Monday to Friday (closed on public holidays).

Substantial scope exists to increase market share by increasing out of town distributors and calling more regularly on local customers.

The absentee owner is motivated to sell, and will provide any reasonable assistance to see through a successful transfer.
