I have been operating a successful fence company deep in the heart of South Central Texas for 21 years and have no heirs! This company has been well re- spected since 1961, and 2011 has been the most profitable in my career. To continue this legacy, I am looking for well qualified new owners with hands on capabilities, solid fence or construction background, AND strong residential sales skills and orientation to take this profitable company into the future. The company has a solid standing in the community and I have made sure it is highly regarded. Our instal- lations are approximately 85 percent residential in a strong market of approximately 2,000,000 people. While much of the U.S. flounders economically, Forbes Magazine believes the South Central Texas market will continue to grow for the foreseeable fu- ture. If you are serious, well qualified, experienced and interested, please contact my representative at rfm1955@gmail.com. No brokers or sales solicita- tions please.
