This business has great potential! Current owner lacks capital necessary to continue and allow the business to become profitable. Excellent growth has been achieved during the past year. Established (and growing) customer base and knowledgeable management team already in place. Current owner is absentee and new owner could be the same. New owner will assume NO long-term debt.
