Stark County, Ohio
Fencing Contractor in Stark County Ohio with $1,726,211 Revenue
$ 2,490,000
Asking $2,490,000 with $865,351 in 2025 Seller Discretionary Earnings and $642,461 Normalized Across Multiple Years. Revenue reached $1,726,211 in 2025, up from $630,881 in 2020. Gross margin held at 58.4% across that expansion, so added volume converted into earnings rather than absorbing them. The company installs fence for residential and commercial customers across Stark County, Ohio and the surrounding market. Work is sold as discrete project contracts rather than recurring service agreements, and each job is billed on completion. Installed pricing in the area runs $15 to $25 per linear foot for chain link, $25 to $35 for wood privacy, and $35 to $45 for vinyl. The business prices inside that range at every product tier. Field operations run on a hybrid labor structure. 1 full-time employee and 2 part-time employees handle core installation and administration on payroll. Subcontracted crews absorb the spring and summer demand peaks, so headcount does not carry through the winter months. Materials, subcontractor payments, and leased equipment make up most of the direct project cost, which keeps the cost base moving with revenue instead of sitting fixed. A buyer acquires the active project pipeline, the subcontractor network built for seasonal scaling, the customer records behind $1,726,211 in 2025 volume, and a cost structure already tested across 5 years of growth. Real estate is not included in the sale. The buyer negotiates a new facility lease directly with the property owner, which leaves the operating location open to selection within the service area. Stark County carries an estimated 2026 population of 374,302. The national fencing installation market is estimated between $13.7 billion and $20.4 billion in 2026, growing at 3.3% to 5.4% annually, with contractors holding roughly 78.8% of the installation channel. This business grew 174% over 5 years against a category growing in the low single digits. That gap represents share taken from other operators rather than category lift. - Summit County to the north holds roughly 540,000 residents and Wayne County to the west roughly 117,000, against 374,302 in the current home county. Both sit inside normal drive time for the existing crews and require no additional equipment or permanent staff. - The subcontractor model converts added volume into margin without permanent payroll. Every incremental job is absorbed by contracted crews at a variable cost, so revenue growth does not require the buyer to fund headcount in advance. - The Canton and North Canton competitive field is fragmented, with no operator holding dominant share. Acquiring or absorbing the book of a retiring single-truck operator adds volume at a lower cost than organic customer acquisition. - Temporary construction site fencing draws on the same chain link inventory and equipment already in use and bills on a rental basis rather than a one-time install, which puts revenue into the winter months that residential installation leaves open. https://tworld.com/locations/Ohio/canton/listings/Fencing-Contractor-in-Stark-County-Ohio-with-1-726-211-Revenue

UNDER CONTRACT: 50-Year Engineering-Driven Specialty Fabricator
$ 2,250,000
Transworld Business Advisors of Northwest Ohio represents an engineering-driven specialty fabricator headquartered in Ohio that designs, builds, rebuilds, and services custom industrial production equipment and produces precision-fabricated metal components for OEM customers. Operating from a 40,000 SF industrial facility, the Company combines mechanical and electronic design, machining, fabrication, machine build, and field service under one roof, capturing the customer at the equipment sale and continuing to earn revenue across the full lifecycle of every machine placed in the field. Revenue is generated across multiple recurring product and service lines with no single line dominating the mix, and no single customer represented more than 8% of revenue in either of the last two fiscal years across a diverse customer base. The team consists of 20+ employees and the owner, organized across leadership, mechanical and electronic design, machining, fabrication, machine build and rebuild, sales, purchasing, and administration. Average employment tenure across the named management group exceeds 15 years; the seller describes turnover as "nearly non-existent" across the entire organization. Ownership has identified three concrete, near-term growth levers a capable acquirer could pursue with limited incremental capital: 1. Expansion of contract fabrication services for OEM customers, leveraging existing fabrication capacity and floor space. 2. Recovery of the tooling and fixtures line of business, where current revenue runs well below historical levels and is supported by existing in-house design and machining capability. 3. Automation upgrades to core production equipment. The current owner has not pursued an outbound sales motion or capital-funded growth program in recent years. A buyer who adds either lever should expect meaningful upside on top of the existing earnings base. https://tworld.com/locations/Ohio/northwestohio/listings/UNDER-CONTRACT:-50-Year-Engineering-Driven-Specialty-Fabricator
Manufacturing & Distributor of Proprietary Suspension
Call/Email
A sector-dominant specialty technology supplier serving the global suspension industry with a proprietary, performance-critical suspension component. To management's knowledge, the company is the only commercial producer of its kind in the world, making it a functional monopoly in a small but performance-critical niche of a $14B+ global market. Tens of millions of units have been delivered across five continents with a documented field failure rate below 0.0003% and a zero-defect operating history. The product is structurally embedded in customer suspension assemblies through 6 to 18 month validation cycles, producing recurring, predictable demand from a Tier 2 and Tier 3 OEM customer base across multiple end markets. Operates on a single shift, four-day production schedule with an ISO 9001:2015 certified quality system, returning a 3-year average normalized EBITDA of approximately $2.05M on approximately $3.18M average revenue (64.7% EBITDA margin). Growth is gated by utilizing existing capacity on the single shift operation and/or expanding shift operations. Current production runs on a single shift, four-day work week, and the same facility, tooling, and trade-secret process can support a doubled (2-shift, 5-day), tripled (3-shift, 5-day), or quadrupled-plus (4-shift, 7-day) output profile with no incremental investment in real estate, machinery, or utility infrastructure. Only modest tooling additions are required to scale. In addition to capacity headroom, the underlying technology platform has multiple validated, un-monetized adjacencies: additional shock systems, expanded railway and high-speed rail suspension share, steering column dampening, hydraulic accumulators, and NVH (noise, vibration, harshness) isolation, with rising relevance in EV applications. Global geographic expansion lanes remain only partially captured, and an aftermarket distributor channel along with higher-mix specialty variants offer complementary lift on price and mix. https://tworld.com/locations/Ohio/northwestohio/listings/Manufacturing-Distributor-of-Proprietary-Suspension

UNDER CONTRACT: High-End Custom Cabinet Manufacturer
$ 784,000

Known for its superior craftsmanship, attention to detail, and exceptional customer service, the business specializes in custom cabinetry, kitchen and bath remodels, built-ins, and high-end woodworking projects. The company operates out of a well-equipped facility with advanced woodworking tools and a clean, efficient workflow.

Patented (Multi) Plastics Processing Components Manufacturer
$ 1,690,000
This plastics processing components manufacturer has operated since 1999, producing precision screws, bimetallic barrels, screw tips, shutoff nozzles, and advanced measurement and process systems for injection molding, blow molding, and extrusion processors. The business holds multiple valuable active USPTO patents covering its core product lines and has developed and sold large-area innovative equiptment through an affiliate channel for nine years. Revenue in 2025 was $1,277,568 with Seller's Discretionary Earnings of $274,863. SDE across the three most recent fiscal years ranged from $267,629 to $279,463, reflecting a 4.4% variance that is exceptional for a precision manufacturing operation. The product portfolio includes both standard replacement components sold to processors maintaining existing equipment and proprietary engineered systems with no direct commodity competition. Patented proprietary systems are supported by four-plus years of field performance data. The company is engaged in a CRADA with the U.S. Department of Energy and Oak Ridge National Laboratories. The business sells to the North American market and exports to customers in Europe, India, and South America. Customers include Tier 2 injection molding facilities, blow molding producers, extruders, and OEM machine builders. No single customer represents a dominant share of revenue. The business carries no material debt. Seven employees staff the operation, with multiple key positions held by long-tenure staff and a supplier base built over more than ten years of consistent commercial relationships. Key Highlights 2025 Revenue: $1,277,568 2025 SDE: $274,863 3-Year Average SDE: $273,985 SDE Variance (3 years): 4.4% Asking Price: $1,690,000 (business only) - Year Established: 1999 - Employees: 7 - Many Active USPTO Patents - Active DOE/ORNL CRADA Reason for Sale: Strategic exit after 26 years Ideal Buyer Profile The most competitive buyer is a plastics processing company, injection molding OEM, or industrial additive manufacturing firm that can deploy the IP portfolio across an existing customer base at scale. A PE-backed platform in plastics or industrial manufacturing seeking a technology-differentiated add-on acquisition is a strong fit. A qualified individual operator with hands-on injection molding or precision manufacturing experience, sufficient capital to bridge the SBA gap through a larger down payment, and the technical background to manage a patent portfolio is also a viable buyer. Minimum liquid capital of $135,000 –$380,000 depending on deal structure, plus working capital reserves. SBA 7(a) financing is available to qualified buyers. The active DOE/ORNL CRADA creates a direct path to institutional validation and government-adjacent procurement that a well-resourced acquirer can convert to contracted OEM revenue without additional R&D investment. Other patented lines are production-ready and field-validated. Systematic marketing to the existing North American customer base represents a low-cost revenue expansion without new product development or customer acquisition costs. A dedicated sales or channel resource allocated to one primary product generates incremental revenue from an addressable market that has received limited focused marketing from the current seven-person organization. The large area equiptment line is transitioning from affiliate-channel sales to direct brand sales with DOE/ORNL institutional support. Nine years of field data and an active research partnership provide the commercial credibility for direct engagement with industrial automation and robotics integrators. The existing global customer base in injection molding, blow molding, and extrusion operates across geographies where the company currently sells standard components. Cross-selling proprietary systems to established accounts generates wallet share growth at zero customer acquisition cost. https://tworld.com/locations/Ohio/canton/listings/Patented-(Multi)-Plastics-Processing-Components-Manufacturer
