      <link>http://www.acquireo.com/business-for-sale/84581.aspx</link>
      <description>Successfully run for thirteen years by the owners who started it. One of the owners has been an operator/manager during that time. It has a high traffic location and is easy to get to from any direction in the area. The business has a stable work-force in place of four full-time workers and one part-timer. Three employees have ten + years experience. The equipment is all in good shape. Employee stability has been a positive factor over the years. A major reason for the employee stability is that the owners pay about $2.00 per hour higher than the average cleaning company in the area. A service (fire restoration) was dropped in 2003 that could easily be picked back up by the new owner, which could immediately make a 20% positive impact on revenues. A major new entity is coming just a block away from the business, which should add to the customer base. Extra space on the property could be utilized for expansion or another income stream.

      <link>http://www.acquireo.com/business-for-sale/84590.aspx</link>
      <description>This trucking company is a family owned, short and long distance, refrigerated trucking firm that has been servicing most of the United States for over thirty years. The owner has secured relationships with all of his major customers and lists several national accounts among his customer base.  This trucking company has established an excellent reputation for personalized service and has been doing business with most of these companies for many years. The owner takes pride in knowing his customers personally, and in several cases has exchanged headquarters visits many times. At this time, he has reached a point where he would like to retire, travel and spend time with his family. Established in 1977, the business has produced steady growth to the point where the owner has been satisfied with the level of sales. Over the past four years revenues have averaged approximately $5.0 million and net discretionary cash flow averaged approximately $600,000. In 2007, sales were down slightly at $4.5 million as the economy softened. Net discretionary cash flow was almost $412,000. In 2008 YTD revenue through July is $3.4 million and net discretionary cash flow has returned to historical levels at $339,000 YTD. Due to numerous solicitations for additional work that has been turned down, the owner believes those numbers could be increased simply by expanding the fleet and equipment, and accepting work that has already been offered. The new owner could also benefit by expanding the workloa&lt;BR&gt;Northwest Arkansas, Arkansas</description>

      <description>This excellent business, started 20+ years ago by the present owners, has found a strong variety of clientele in niche areas which has protected it from Chinese competition.

The real estate included in the sale is a highly desirable location.  It is a strategically positioned site that enhances the effectiveness and future growth of the company.  This is important because the scope of work is both national and international.  Expansion possibility is factored in to the facility.

      <title>Wood Recycling Company - Northwest Arkansas,Arkansas</title>
      <link>http://www.acquireo.com/business-for-sale/85431.aspx</link>
      <description>PRICE REDUCED! Located on 11 acres in the industrial park of a small community in NW Arkansas, the company sells poultry &amp; livestock bedding, horticulture mulches, wood flour, fiber bulk, boiler fuel &amp; wood talc. 
Oak fiber and sawdust has been the primary driver of sales, with wood flour and mulch rounding out the top three. The company has experienced a compound growth rate of approximately 8 percent for the 2004 through 2007 time period. Sales are expected to significantly increase in 2009 due to recent approval as the major wood fiber provider for a biomass pellet fuel manufacturer in Missouri. Other growth in revenue will be driven by additional production in wood flour and there is an opportunity to become a distributor by exploiting a strategic opportunity with a wood pellet manufacturer.

This company was established in 1972 and has evolved into a waste wood recycling business, specializing in custom wood fiber. The owners have built the business to approximately $2.5 million in revenue over the past thirty-five years and are now ready to sell and retire. Revenues are projected to increase over the next five years as a new pellet company goes online. 2008 YTD cash flow has suffered a costs have increased as a result of the declining economy. The situation has improved recently and revenue and cash flow should recover to 2007 levels next year. The asking price is $1.3 million and all property and acreage is included with the sale.

      <title>Hardware Store - Northwest Arkansas,Arkansas</title>
      <link>http://www.acquireo.com/business-for-sale/88835.aspx</link>
      <description>Located in northwest Arkansas, this hardware store has served the region for more than thirty years. Their success is a result of good management, concentration on customer service and proper merchandising. There is only one other hardware store in the immediate area and both operations are prospering. This market area enjoyed the steady growth experienced by the national economy. However, it did not experience the radical fluctuations other markets had to deal with. The owner’s successes are not due to any one larger commercial account or massive local development. The steady growth reflects his strategic emphasis on service, price and product. Current demographics suggest this market area will continue to grow at a rate exceeding 3% per year.

Sales in 2006 grew 76% and sellers discretionary earning increased nearly ten fold. 2007 continued that trend with sales nearly reaching $600,000 and discretionary earnings topping $60,000. The owner expects these trends to continue and estimates 2008 sales will reach $671,000 and discretionary earnings exceeding $90,000.

Owner will consider selling real property.

      <title>Fire &amp; Water Damage Restoration Service - Northwest Arkansas,Arkansas</title>
      <link>http://www.acquireo.com/business-for-sale/89007.aspx</link>

They also mitigate mold and mildew situations, and offer services including cleaning carpets, upholstery, air ducts, drapes, walls, ceilings, and biohazard situations. 

This franchise location has exclusive rights to two cities in NW Arkansas but because there is no franchisee (and none contemplated) south and east then business is done in multiple surrounding counties in Northwest Arkansas (estimated value of franchise exclusivity $37,000). The business has achieved $420,954 in revenue over the last twelve months and $203,542 in net discretionary cash flow. Sales are projected to be $550,000 in 2008 and projected to grow 25% per year over the next three years. YTD revenue through 7-31-08 is $320,000 with net discretionary of $172,777.  2008 year end net discretionary should be $225,000. The Franchisor has added several multi-year contractual relationships with national insurance companies.  This can be a terrific franchise business opportunity for a new owner/operator in one of the most desirable locations in Northwest Arkansas. Or an investor could hire a General Manager to run the business and still make an excellent return on investment.

      <link>http://www.acquireo.com/business-for-sale/89703.aspx</link>
      <description>This small-town, well-run, family-operated restaurant has established itself in a niche market with little competition in the surrounding area.  With annual increases in gross sales over the last three years, the restaurant is on track to again increase 14% by the end of 2008.  The total price of $460,000 includes real estate valued at $250,000 (per 2008 appraisal) and the business valued at $210,000 (only two times earnings!).  The facility is exquisitely maintained, as are the fixtures, furniture, and equipment.  This is truly a turn-key business opportunity for an owner/operator or an absentee owner.  The sellers have other, existing business interests (not related to the restaurant) to concentrate on, and have priced this business to sell quickly. Restaurant is 3,600 sq. ft. with an additional 2,040 sq. ft.&lt;BR&gt;Southern Missouri, Missouri</description>

      <description>This is an ideal situation for a couple to run as a family business. Only one additional employee would be required if both husband and wife worked in the business. The general economic environment of the Southwest Missouri area remains strong with commercial construction booming. This is an ideal time to purchase this business with the prospect of a return of strong residential construction in 2009.

Currently, of the company’s total revenue, approximately 65% comes from commercial work and 35% from retail. In addition to several lines of fireplaces, which the company has sold since its inception, a line of spas was recently added to the company’s product line. 

This business is very well-established, having been in operation for 10 years. It was purchased by the current owner about six years ago. It has a reputation for outstanding customer service and the very highest quality work. It is located in Southwest Missouri, a vibrant and booming area. The business serves the entire Southwest Missouri area, including the rapidly growing city of Branson, Missouri.
