Mansfield Pump Shop - Mansfield

This business was established by the current owners in 1984 and is well located in the main shopping precinct of a popular lifestyle town. With a reputation as the principal pumping and irrigation retailer in the district, the business offers a wide range of products and services, including up to a dozen different brands of pumps and motors, irrigation and reticulation systems, tanks and related equipment, pressure cleaning equipment, as well as poly-pipe hoses and an extensive stock of parts and small fittings. The business also incorporates an electrical and irrigation contracting division. The two divisions complement each other by way of sharing labour, plant and equipment and staff technical knowledge.

In recent years, the business has also specialised in the supply and installation of solar panels, solar hot water & solar pumping systems, providing exposure to another growing income stream. The owners have upgraded the electrical side of the business with a Solar Grid connect licence which has contributed to the increase in sales.

The business employs three full time staff in addition to the owners and would be well suited to an owner-operator or family. The business has a high and increasing turnover and an excellent net profit, with very little to do to continue its path of consistent growth.  Longstanding, high profile retail and contracting business, in a strong regional location which continues to attract higher demographic residents from Melbourne and surrounding areas.
