Mining Product Supplies & Services
About this opportunity
Established in 2016, this highly regarded mining products and services business supplies specialised, finished solutions directly to mining companies, industrial operators and a substantial network of resellers. Its extensive range has been carefully developed to help customers reduce downtime, extend equipment life, improve operational reliability and achieve measurable efficiency gains. The seller has vendor numbers in place with several leading mining operations around Australia with some items listed in catalogues.
A major strength of the business is its ability to respond to both planned maintenance requirements and urgent operational problems. Its offering encompasses rapid-response repair solutions, wear protection, fluid-handling applications, screening and materials-handling solutions, equipment maintenance support, fabrication and asset-condition reporting. Services can be coordinated on-site or off-site, depending on the needs of each customer.
Average weekly sales are approximately $30,000, supported by an attractive margin of approximately 28% after all operating expenses. Subject to verification through the buyer’s due-diligence process, this represents a compelling return on investment and provides an established financial platform from which a motivated new owner could pursue further growth.
The supply model is supported by capable, cost-effective manufacturers and suppliers, enabling the business to offer commercially competitive solutions while maintaining healthy margins. Customers are serviced throughout Australia, while the established industry relationships, supplier capabilities and broad application knowledge create potential for expansion into additional domestic and international markets.
Business Story
This business was eastablished in 2016 with a clear purpose: to provide mining and industrial customers with practical solutions capable of producing measurable operational improvements.
The founder recognised that many mine sites and industrial facilities were not merely looking for another supplier. They needed knowledgeable assistance to identify the right approach for demanding applications, minimise costly interruptions and improve the working life of critical equipment.
From that foundation, the business developed a wide-ranging portfolio of specialised solutions sourced through capable, cost-effective suppliers. The range was selected to address recurring challenges such as abrasion, impact, corrosion, leakage, equipment wear, materials movement and unplanned maintenance. This practical focus enabled the business to support customers with both long-term asset-management requirements and urgent problems requiring a fast response.
Over time, the operation expanded beyond straightforward supply. It developed the capacity to connect customers with on-site and off-site installation services, remedial repairs, specialist lining work, fabrication and asset-condition reporting. This broader offering allows customers to obtain more than a finished item: they can access guidance intended to improve reliability, monitor wear and make better-informed maintenance decisions.
For an incoming owner, the opportunity is to acquire a functioning platform with established revenue, supplier capability, market credibility and substantial scope for development. Growth could potentially be achieved by appointing additional resellers, expanding the sales team, increasing digital marketing, strengthening stock availability, formalising recurring supply arrangements and pursuing new mining and industrial territories.
The business may suit an existing industrial supplier seeking a complementary acquisition, a mining-services company wishing to broaden its offering, or a commercially driven owner-operator with the ability to develop relationships and pursue new accounts.
Importantly, the seller is prepared to assist with a smooth transition. If required, the seller may consider remaining employed for an agreed period and remuneration, continuing as the public face of the business and helping preserve valuable customer and supplier relationships. Partial vendor finance may also be considered for a suitable purchaser, subject to mutually acceptable terms, security and due diligence.

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.
