About this opportunity
Bowen Stationery & Computers are the go-to store for all things computer repairs, software and electronic accessories, and stationery and office furniture. Being the only dedicated stationery provider in Bowen has allowed them to capture an entire portion of a market to diversify their revenue. This business has been scaled from the ground up to cater to the needs of a wider audience and is ready for a new owner to utilise this potential.
Business Story
Bowen Stationery & Computers offer their customers computer retail and repair, software and accessory retail, a copying and laminating service, and stationery and office furniture retail. Only stocking the top brands in all aspects of their retail allows their customers can rest assured that they are buying quality, and if it needs repairing, they can easily do the job.
The business operates out of well-set up shopfront on Powell Street in Bowen. They moved to this location in 2014, and the fit out is in exceptional condition. This is an excellent location, with plenty of walk-in traffic from the street and adequate parking nearby.
This opportunity offers further growth potential for any driven operators through expanding to printing services and opening an online store to expand your audience even further while giving your local audience the ability to click and collect their goods.
After you purchase this business, the current owners will give you a generous period of tuition to let you get accustomed to operating the business. This tuition will set you up for success out of the gate and run you through everything you need to know to successfully take over when the time comes.
The current owners of the business would like to retire and are reluctantly offering this fantastic opportunity to a driven prospective buyer. If you are looking for an already set up stationery & computer retailer with room for growth, give us a call today!

Phil started his working career in purchasing with large and multi-national companies in Sydney.
A family relocation to Bowen in 1974 was the catalyst to owning his own business.
Phil has been in various businesses from Pest Control to Delicatessen/Takeaway and has for the last 39 years built a wholesale business that has served Bowen, Whitsundays, Mackay and the Coalfields, from 1 truck and himself to 6 trucks and 15 employees.
This has given Phil a very solid knowledge of the area from Bowen to Rockhampton and what it takes to thrive in business there.
Phil has a strong knowledge of business and business practices built through the process of growing his own business as well as time spent on State Franchise Council and dealing with the many changing government policies in those 39 years.
The process of selling his own business has shown Phil the real need for a locally based business broker, easily contacted and heavily focused on the Central Queensland area, which has led to his involvement in CQ Business Brokers.
