Description
Turnkey LED retrofit and lighting integrator serving a roster of Class A institutional landlords, premier sports venues, and top facilities across the NYC market (one of the most demanding commercial real estate environments in the country). Regulatory tailwinds on commercial lighting compliance creates its own demand.
This isn’t a volume shop chasing every job that comes through the door. The Company has spent years earning “preferred vendor” status with sophisticated property managers and GCs who need flawless, non-union execution inside fully occupied, design-sensitive buildings. This is one of only a handful of non-union electrical contractors granted access to some of these institutional portfolios at all.
2026 is shaping up well. The business is on pace for $1.5-2M in revenue. Two active opportunities exceeding $1M each came in purely through GC and project management relationships, not the anchor institutional account — the growth potential extends well beyond any top client.
With real runway left untapped, the current owner is regularly turning away new work simply due to bandwidth and client selectivity, while spending part time hours a week keeping things running. A buyer with more time, capital, or a sales-focused hire, could meaningfully scale this without inventing a new strategy.
What the business does:
End-to-end LED retrofit and high-efficiency lighting conversions: audit, design, procurement, installation, and optimization
Advanced lighting controls integration
Ongoing project flow driven by energy code compliance and corporate ESG mandates, not one-off discretionary spend
Remote/On-site, no electrical license/permit held by the business
How it performs financially:
50%+ gross margins
Lean, efficient operating structure
Strong cash position with minimal debt
Long-tenured client relationships, several spanning years, with high repeat/referral rates
Building owners and facilities managers aren’t choosing whether to modernize lighting, they’re required to, between tightening energy codes and corporate sustainability mandates. That makes this demand structural, not cyclical. Even data centers built for AI workloads need compliant lighting infrastructure. This business is positioned directly in the path of that demand.
