Listing # EL05252|Listed on 16 June


  • $6M Revenue
  • $1.49M SDE
  • 20+ Years Established
  • AI Defensive



As artificial intelligence transforms industries, businesses that rely on skilled people, technical expertise and physical delivery are becoming increasingly attractive.

This exceptional Auckland-based commercial trade business is particularly well positioned.

AI represents an opportunity to improve performance and accelerate growth, rather than a threat to its core services.

Established for more than 20 years, the business has developed an outstanding reputation, long-standing blue-chip customer relationships and genuine barriers to entry that would take years to replicate.

Investment Highlights:

  • Exceptional profitability: Approximately $6 million in annual revenue and maintainable SDE of $1.49 million.
  • AI-defensive: Essential, skilled, hands-on services that cannot readily be replaced by technology.
  • Established competitive advantages: Experienced staff, proven systems, trusted suppliers and long-standing commercial relationships.
  • Significant growth potential: No dedicated business development function, limited proactive marketing and a history of turning away work.
  • AI upside: Opportunities to improve sales, lead generation, estimating, scheduling and administration.
  • Proven performance: More than 20 years of successful trading and an established reputation for quality.



The owners have focused on delivering exceptional service rather than maximising growth. A motivated purchaser could build on this highly profitable platform without having to establish the infrastructure, relationships and reputation from scratch.
This is not a turnaround opportunity. It is an opportunity to acquire a highly profitable business with genuine growth potential and strong defensive characteristics in an AI-driven economy.
