Niche Manufacturing in Heavy Vehicle Trailers – South Australia

This is a very well-established independent trailer manufacturer and repairer that is filling a void in the very busy trailer building market.  The business specialises in aluminium fabrication for trailer bins and accessories. It has its own trailer manufacturing licence and has plenty of work doing fabrication for other semi-trailer builders as well as providing maintenance for the end users.

The business is located in the outer suburbs to the north of Adelaide. The operation is managed in a purpose-built factory with several bays for production and a drive-through maintenance workshop. A gantry crane is to be installed to facilitate the movement of trailer bodies through the production area. All this is housed in a huge, security-fenced block with two street frontages.

Business highlights

• Growing niche market
• Part of booming transport industry
• Locally owned and operated
• A strong team of experienced personnel
• Freehold available
• Ability to expand production

A comprehensive handover is included as part of the sale.

Transport of goods around Australia continues to grow significantly, so the need for local manufacturing of quality trailers is paramount. The experience and momentum of this operation will carry forward seamlessly under the new owner. This business will suit investors, interstate manufacturers seeking an Adelaide base, as well as local operators looking to bring repairs and maintenance in-house.

Asking Price: The business is being sold with all assets of plant & equipment, IP and goodwill for $1.99 million. Stock and WIP would be at a value of approx. $500,000.
