Very long established & highly regarded family-run Ltd Co with impressive trade client base offering premium quality services from well maintained circa 1.2 acre industrial site with well fitted warehouse/office & ancillary facilities in excellent commercial location. Comes with extensive inventory of 44-tonne tractor units & trailers included & HUGE scope to develop for 'hands on' operator or outstanding acquisition for expanding logistical solutions provider. Sensibly priced for genuine retirement sale after very many successful years trading in same hands with early interest strongly advised REF 1894

The subject premises occupy an ideal and very convenient trading position among other independent operators in a thriving commercial area situated on the outskirts of the vibrant and historic market town of Louth, which lies with excellent access to major road links (A16, A18, A153, A157 and A631 etc.) in the delightful and affluent semi-rural East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire.

We are delighted to present this excellent opportunity to acquire the valuable freehold rights to a thriving commercial proposition of uncommon size, quality and outstanding future possibilities, which we are confident you will agree represents genuine value.

This very well established and highly regarded, family-run limited company currently primarily conducts a prompt, reliable and highly efficient, full and part-load road haulage and distribution operation of various commodities on a local, regional and nationwide basis.

“WA Jaines & Son Ltd” provides its services for a long-standing and still-expanding repeat and referral trade client base in a broad spectrum of industry sectors drawn from throughout a wide surrounding catchment area, and operates from premises of a size which would naturally furnish any enthusiastic purchaser with considerable scope for continued growth, not least with regard to possible investment in additional vehicles, trailers and staff in order to fully exploit year-round local, regional and, indeed, nationwide demand.

The business would also benefit greatly by adopting a far more vigorous marketing policy of its excellent existing services, particularly with reference to the possible introduction of online advertising, in order to improve upon the already impressive levels of turnover it has achieved in the course of some seventy five highly successful years’ trading in the hands of the current family directors, with the aid of an experienced and motivated team of twelve full-time staff who would be an asset to any purchaser.

Alternatively, this versatile proposition would most certainly appeal to some similar-sized or larger allied enterprise looking to very significantly increase its existing share of the highly diverse professional logistical solutions services market by the acquisition of a dynamic and extremely well located additional independent operator with a valuable name in the industry, a superb range of market-leading services and an already impressive trade client base, and we would strongly urge any genuine interested parties to pursue the earliest possible enquiries.

Affording easy vehicle access for deliveries and despatches by means of large, full-height steel industrial roller shutter doors, this extensive freehold property currently features TWO substantial and extremely well fitted, single-storey warehouse units with concrete flooring, high ceilings and diffused fluorescent lighting throughout, both of which afford extensive and versatile storage and goods inward/outward facilities.

Accessed by means of its own separate public/personnel entrance, the premises also incorporate a separate detached, single-storey unit providing further extremely well fitted internal business accommodation consisting of a suite of 2 x bright, fully furnished and equipped client reception and general administration office areas.

The office areas house a full complement of individual work desk stations, telephone lines and industry-specific business management systems, with further ancillary accommodation consisting of all the usual washroom/WC facilities.

The premises also enjoy the benefit of double glazing and a mains electricity power supply, in addition to the added security benefit of a full alarm system.

Externally:

Extending to approximately 1.2 ACRES in total, to the exterior the premises feature a substantial and well maintained, concrete-surfaced yard and loading bay area with steel perimeter fencing and secure gated access providing extensive external storage and private unrestricted off road parking facilities.
