Business Description

This Andersens store was established in 1987 by the current owners and has a proven track record to show that it is one of the more successful businesses in the area.

The business has minimal competition meaning they can be very price competitive. With the boost in the primary resources sector and a new coal mine approved no more than 5 kms away, the need for housing and large retail/commercial in the area is rapidly growing.

The store will continue to show growth as the township grows. A number of major businesses are coming to town, which can only mean one thing, GROWTH. These businesses do an amazing amount of research before investing into an area, so the projected population growth must be huge.

For over 50 years Andersens has been the trusted name in floor coverings. The business has built its reputation on its commitment to customer service, ethical business practices, backed up by the latest business operating systems and procedures. Every type of floor covering and budget is catered for and Andersens takes pride in supplying customers with a superior product range. Andersens has expanded their range of flooring products in line with changing market trends from just carpet and vinyl flooring to include timber, timber laminates, cork, ceramic tiles and most recently, window furnishings.

A manager is in place to ensure that the operation can run without the owners' direct involvement, allowing them to get away during the year. A full time administration manager looks after the accounts with another administration staff member doing all orders and invoicing. There is also a warehouse manager who controls the stock when it arrives and also ensures the correct stock goes to the correct job numbers.
