What should I check first in a manufacturer?

Equipment condition and customer concentration. Worn machinery and a single dominant account are the two issues most likely to change the price.

Revolutionary Portable Medical Sterilization Device

Confidential

The Mobile Ozone Sterilization Unit is a patented, high-performance sterilization system and a portable system designed for disaster response, emergency medicine, and off-grid environments. More than a traditional sterilizer, it provides a flexible solution for medical-grade sterilization where conventional systems cannot operate. Its versatility allows for effective use in hospitals, surgery centers, dental clinics, laboratories, and medical practices, supporting both mobile and permanent installations. Protected by four patents, the system uses ozone, plasma activation, and active circulation to achieve medical-grade 6-log sterilization without heat or harsh chemicals, ensuring safe disinfection of sensitive instruments and surfaces. Compact yet rugged, it operates on battery, AC, DC, or solar power, enabling deployment in field hospitals, emergency response situations, and established healthcare facilities. With internet-enabled monitoring and verification capabilities, it supports compliance and quality assurance, while its adaptability extends to biomedical applications such as research labs, medical device production, and infection control. Beyond healthcare, the technology can also be applied to water and food safety, providing a reliable, chemical-free sterilization solution wherever hygiene and contamination control are critical.

Top-Grossing Texas BBQ Franchise | Proven #1 Unit | Operator Upside

Eastvale, Riverside County, California, United States

Eastvale, Riverside County, CA, US

5-Year #1 in CA – Estab. 2013 -Underperforming Absentee =Margin Opp Buyer Process : NDA + basic proof of funds required prior to release of name, address, and financials. Landlord and franchisor approvals will require full financial qualification. This is not a startup—it’s a proven, top-performing Texas-style BBQ franchise in Eastvale, CA that has slipped under absentee ownership and is now priced to reflect that opportunity. ±1,980 SF location. Operating under current ownership for 6 years, with brand presence at this site since 2013. Starting during the Covid pandemic - five consecutive years, this was the highest-grossing franchised location for the brand in California. The business is currently absentee-run with two full-time co-managers covering 70–80 hours/week ($22/hr) and five part-time staff ($20/hr). Operations are stable, but the lack of hands-on ownership over the past couple of years has capped performance—this is where the opportunity is. A working owner or family-run operation can realistically tighten labor, increase oversight, and push this back toward its prior peak performance. Why This Deal Makes Sense: Proven #1 revenue unit in California (5 years straight) Established franchise location since 2013 Fully built-out ±1,980 SF—no heavy lift required Stable team in place with management coverage Clear operational inefficiencies = immediate margin upside Clean handoff for operator, family, or multi-unit buyer Important Notes: Price excludes franchisor transfer fee, required HQ training, and lease assignment costs Buyer must qualify with franchisor and landlord Potential E-2 visa opportunity (buyer to verify with counsel) Ideal Buyer: This is built for someone who will actually show up—owner-operator, family-run setup, or franchisee expanding footprint. Passive investors will leave money on the table here. Priced to reflect current absentee performance—not historical peak. Seller is realistic and prepared to transact with a qualified buyer, but not interested in renegotiation after diligence. If you’ve been waiting for a real operator play—not a dressed-up listing—this is it. The upside is obvious, but it won’t sit. Ad#:2486234

This is one of the most compelling acquisition opportunities in the Northeast print and packaging market — a profitable, fully staffed, owner-independent platform with over 50 years of continuous operation, a Fortune 500 client base, and EBITDA trending over $800K. The seller is motivated and flexible on structure for the right buyer. THE BUSINESS >Full-service commercial printer and packaging provider with all production in-house >Three diversified revenue lines: commercial and digital printing, custom packaging including folding cartons, and HIPAA-certified transactional print and mail services >No single customer exceeds 12% of revenue — Fortune 500 client relationships averaging 5+ years with high switching costs >Dual FSC and HIPAA certified — unlocking healthcare, pharmaceutical, and ESG-mandated enterprise contracts most regional competitors cannot access >87 new clients acquired in 2025 alone WHY THIS BUSINESS STANDS OUT The commercial print and packaging industry is experiencing significant tailwinds. Domestic reshoring driven by tariff pressure is actively generating new client wins in this segment. E-commerce growth is fueling demand for custom packaging. Healthcare print is one of the fastest-growing segments in North American commercial printing. This business is certified, staffed, and already capturing all three trends.

Senior management averages over a decade of tenure. Client relationships are held by the sales team — not the owner. The seller is motivated, willing to remain through transition, and flexible on deal structure including seller financing for the right buyer. This caliber of business — certified, hard-asset rich, and growing — rarely comes to market. NDA required.

What to know about manufacturing business acquisitions

By George Wellmer

Cofounder & CEO

Key diligence, valuation, financing, and transition considerations for buyers evaluating manufacturing business acquisitions.

Inspect the equipment and the capex runway

Tour the floor with someone who knows the machines. Ask the age, maintenance history, and remaining life of every major asset, and budget for the replacements the seller has been deferring.

Quantify customer concentration

Many manufacturers have one or two accounts that make up most of revenue. Get a customer-by-customer breakdown and understand the switching costs that keep them.

Understand the working-capital cycle

Inventory, work-in-process, and receivables tie up real cash. Establish how much working capital the business needs to run and whether it is included in the deal.

Assess workforce and key-person risk

Skilled operators and a plant manager are often hard to replace in the short run. Identify who holds the know-how and what retention looks like after close.

Check environmental and regulatory exposure

Process chemicals, waste streams, and older facilities carry liability. A Phase I assessment and a review of permits and safety history are standard.

Separate real margins from owner add-backs

Scrutinize the add-backs in seller discretionary earnings. Equipment leases, related-party rent, and deferred maintenance can make the margins look better than they are.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common buyer questions for this market.

Commonly yes. Tangible assets help with collateral, and qualification depends on clean financials, verifiable returns, and a seller who meets program requirements on the business side. Additionally, if real estate makes up a large component of the business's value, you can use a SBA 504 loan to finance the transaction.
