This business was founded in 1990 as a supplier of printing supplies and printing equipment to printers throughout southwest Idaho. It has a very good customer base selling ink, chemicals, rollers, blankets, drills and accessories, plates, silvermaster, cutters, binding equipment, folders and joggers, staplers, shrink wrappers, envelope feeders, plate punches, numbering machines, film, cleaners, press accessories, and most other products purchased on a regular basis by print shops. The owner operates the company semi-passively, as he also operates another non-related business full time. Overhead is very low and typical margins are approximately 25% - 40%. Sales are steady year to year, along with cash flow. Because of this, the business has many possibilities depending on the objective of a buyer. Possibilities include retaining the business as is; that is taking orders and delivering them a total of 20 hours per week for a very easy, good return on investment. A new owner can also work this business full time to increase sales, expand customer base, and promote higher priced equipment lines. There are many untapped business opportunities awaiting a new owner. This business can also be home-based, however an easy accessible storage area approximately 600 sq. ft. is required for inventory.

Facilities: Relocation of this business is required. It can be home-based, however a storage area of approximately 600 Sq. Ft. is required for inventory storage.

Competition: Competition is mostly large, out of town, national distributors and mail order/internet. These competitors are unable to provide the immediate delivery that most customers require when they are in need. When a print shop runs out of product, they usually need it yesterday, and this company can deliver.

Growth/Expansion: A full time operator or an additional outside sales person should increase sales. A company catalog is also recommended. Each of these will require a modest investment.

Support/Training: Seller will provide support and training and will introduce buyer to major customers.

Reason Selling: Owner has other businesses and wants to free up time.
