Service businesses provide intangible products, such as expertise, labor, or convenience, rather than physical goods. The UK’s service sector is the backbone of the economy, accounting for over 70% of GDP. Acquiring a service business offers the advantage of entering an established market with demand driven by a mix of corporate needs, evolving consumer preferences, and a strong, diverse customer base. Many service businesses are resilient to economic cycles due to the ongoing demand for essential or specialised services.
There are many businesses which encompass the services industry, but they are ones we rely on a day-to-day basis for convenience purposes and as part of our commercial economy. Just a few of the many examples include security and alarms, contract cleaning, gardening and landscaping, printing, waste recycling, hospitality, mailing houses, kitchen and bathroom development, garages and MOT, and motor repairs. Note that we have a separate section for professional services.
If you are considering buying a service business as a new venture or as part of an ongoing growth strategy for your existing services company, then BSR is the ideal tool to help you shortlist ideal acquisition targets.Click here to find out more.
