About this opportunity
Freedom Screens are an Australian manufacturer dedicated to creating innovative screen solutions for French, bi-fold and sliding stacker doors and windows, as well as pillarless corners and large, difficult-to-screen openings, balcony screen, patio screen and outdoor privacy screen solutions.
Freedom Retractable Screens Cairns presents an exceptional business acquisition opportunity as its owner prepares for retirement, creating the perfect opening for a motivated buyer to take over a proven successful operation. This turnkey business is affiliated with Australia's largest retractable screen company, delivering sustainable profit margins with minimal overhead costs.
The operation offers an attractive work-life balance with a standard five-day work week and can be efficiently managed by just two people. A loyal customer base already exists in a region where the product remains in constant demand.
Business Story
As a dealership of Australia's largest retractable screen company, Freedom Screens Cairns benefits from national brand recognition, proven product lines, and established supply chains. This affiliation provides competitive advantages that independent operators simply cannot match, while still allowing for local management autonomy. Freedom Screens Cairns stands as a testament to successful business operations, having served the community for over two decades while maintaining an enviable reputation for quality and service.
After 22 years of building this established business, substantial growth opportunities remain, including geographical expansion to extend service coverage, incorporating new product innovations to the current range, introducing digital marketing efforts to reach younger demographics and new residents, targeting commercial and hospitality projects, and implementing programmed maintenance services for existing and new clientele.
Freedom Retractable Screens Cairns operates from a compact yet efficient location, featuring a combined showroom and office space alongside a manufacturing and storage area for materials and equipment. Situated in a central industrial area, this location offers strategic positioning for easy customer access and minimal ongoing lease commitments.
With the current owner ready to retire, this presents an exceptional and affordable opportunity for a motivated buyer, with no specific experience required thanks to the comprehensive transition support provided. The ideal buyer for Freedom Retractable Screens Cairns would have an entrepreneurial mindset, a strong customer service orientation, basic business management skills, and comfort with sales and customer consultations. They should also appreciate quality craftsmanship, attention to detail, and value work-life balance within a profitable business model. While technical installation skills are beneficial, they are not essential, as the current installer handles this expertise, allowing the new owner to focus on business development.

Drawing on decades of combined corporate and small business experience, he has elevated the standard of business brokering through the creation of the Business Sales Group—comprising of NQ Business Sales, CQ Business Sales, FNQ Business Sales and SEQ Business Sales.

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.
