Relocatable Events Business for sale

Please quote reference B06993

Hilton Smythe welcomes to the market an exciting opportunity to acquire (on a business only basis) a well-respected and popular weddings and events business. 

Crackin Events has been under the careful and meticulous ownership of our client for a number of years, building up an enviable reputation within the local area and further afield, and is a true testament to the hard work and dedication from the current owners, resulting in the high calibre of business on offer. The business is now being offered for sale due to our client’s other business interests and they are keen to see the business pass to someone with the same drive and enthusiasm to take it to the next level.

The business specialises in adding the finishing touch to weddings, birthday parties and corporate events supplying the likes of photo booths, selfie post boxes, wedding décor, Prosecco & cocktail carts, candy cart, lighting, backdrops and much more. The business is a growing yet successful business with potential to become a market leader and currently has £51,000 worth of bookings between 2023-2025, £36,000 of which is currently on the books for 2023.The business benefits from late lead bookings with most pickup 4-5 months prior to the client’s event. They are also known by other companies and benefit from their overfill and unfulfillable orders. All bookings are entered on to their CRM system and managed according to the business processes including 4-week final detail calls. Due to the level of service received by clients it has resulted in a very loyal client base, with a high volume of repeat trade and word of mouth recommendations.

We feel there is scope to increase turnover with the undertaking of a robust marketing campaign via local press, social media, along with further promotion of the dedicated and attending wedding fairs.

This is a highly desirable business with an excellent business model in place and would be a very attractive proposition for either an individual or partnership looking for their first business in this sector which is already established, or for an experienced operator looking for an additional business with an attractive potential income stream.
