Company history/background
Since 2003, the company has been delivering custom-built scale models to museums and businesses. These models are used for presentations at trade shows, in offices, exhibitions, or as corporate gifts. The company has experienced significant growth in recent years, averaging €660,000 in revenue over the past 3 years. With no debts, the company maintains all processes and techniques in-house necessary for its operations. It has established strong and stable relationships with suppliers, maintaining daily contact. Facing minimal competition, it remains a unique niche industry. The customers consistently find their way to the company.
Company activities
In addition to the main business of supplying scale models, the company also carries out repairs, servicing, and color changes of scale models in its own workshop. Additionally, there is a small 3D printing service.
The company has a large customer base primarily in the Netherlands and Belgium, but also beyond. It utilizes a modern CRM system with 7,300 companies and 10,800 contacts.
The company is not inherently tied to a specific location and currently operates from a rented property in South Holland. The lease is valid until June 2025 and is potentially transferable. Apart from the owner, there is one other person working in the company. The owner primarily handles the technical aspects of the business, while the employee manages the accounting. Together, they handle sales, marketing, and delivery, as well as repairs and workshop activities.
Unique selling points
The industry trends are positive and stable. Scale models continue to be a crowd-puller at trade shows and are highly appreciated as corporate gifts. The company has successfully weathered the COVID-19 period with numerous ongoing projects for new construction. Now that this period is behind us, trade shows are once again gaining strong popularity.
Other
Both individuals are planning to step away from the company to pursue other business ventures. The owner remains available for a smooth transition. The company would be a valuable addition for businesses involved in 3D printing and/or the production of 'simpler' corporate gifts/models. There is a high demand for these, with the potential for in-house production and all the necessary resources already in place. However, due to busy schedules, this aspect has not gained significant traction.
