Rotorua
 

This business has been sold!

Business for Sale Rotorua
 

Take the next step to start a business you’re interested in and become your own boss today. Crewcut Rotorua has an established franchise up for a quick sale that’s all set and ready to go for the right person.

The current owner of this franchise has decided to sell his lawn mowing round with 40 customers. He has been mowing most of these lawns for over 11 years, so they are good quality clients who stick and have established good relationships with the operator. The franchise owner proudly says he has not stayed with clients that misbehave.

For some time now, this operator has found it increasingly hard to keep the momentum going. Being close to 65 years old and having mowed lawns for over a decade, he felt that it’s time for him to step aside and make room for someone else to take over.

The asking price for the business is $9,000.

His gear is also for sale for the person who buys the lawns, but the buyer has the option to just buy the lawns and buy the equipment he prefers separately. Tools and vehicle on offer are detailed as follows:

  • Grillo ride-on mower: $3,000

  • 1997 Isuzu truck with tail lift: $7,000

  • Stihl brush cutter: $150

  • Hedge trimmer attachment: $300

  • Lawnmaster lawnmower: $200

The current owner prefers to use a ride-on mower when cutting the grass at these properties. It is not a necessity, however, because the lawns can be cut comfortably with a push mower — 40 lawns over 10 days is just four or five lawns a day.

There’s plenty of opportunities to grow the business even further regardless of the season. You can make extra income by offering additional services such as hedge trimming, section tidies, and gardening.

This is your chance to join a Kiwi owned and operated business that takes great pride in quality workmanship and outstanding customer service. We are almost 30 years old and our franchise managers in Rotorua have been with us for almost 25 years.

To know more about this franchise, just email rotorua@crewcut.co.nz or call 0800 800 286. Alternatively, you can get in touch with the franchise owner Ian directly at 021 442 920. We also have other franchise opportunities available in Rotorua so ask us directly and we’ll be happy to chat about them. Express your interest in this business by clicking the button below.
