Business Operation

Expansion Potential:

The phone "continues to ring" with opportunities to increase the volume of products sold, but for the past several years the seller has been very selective. Only those jobs with an attractive margin and minimal risk are being accepted. The opportunity to increase volume is still available, and can be realized without any increase in fixed costs. There is sufficient plant capacity to significantly increase output, with minimal increased labor cost.
