Montana Ranch And Lumber Supply For Sale

Business description

This business is located in a very desirable small town in Western Montana surrounded by mountains and large bodies of water. Recreation opportunities abound and this is a great place to live and raise a family! The business has been hit hard the agricultural last few years by the local recession but the future looks much brighter as the local farm and ranch economy has vastly improved. Also a new copper mine is about to be opened nearby which should help as well. The facility is very well located along the major North South Highway and is well suited for this enterprise. Lack of operating capital by the owner has kept his inventory too low these last few years contributing to lower sales. A new owner with a reasonable operating line is needed to take advantage of the much improving economy. More lumber and fencing supplies in particular are needed.

Business Operation

Expansion potential:

This business has a great growth potential. As late as 2007 the sales were over $2 Million Dollars per year and SDE of $184K. A combination of the downturn in the economy and the owners decision to draw down his inventory and reduce his debt resulted in todays lower sales. The trade area and competition levels have not significantly changed so we believe this business can easily be ramped up.

Competition / Market:

Owner states there is no competition in lumber for 30 miles and he has an exclusive area with Crysalyx feed tubs.
