The business has been operating for decades in Hawke's Bay. The business was founded to service the rapidly growing grape industry in the region, supplying grape cartage services during the grape harvest, between the vineyards and the wineries. As the grape harvest is seasonal the business expanded into bulk fresh water transportation servicing farms and lifestyle blocks, swimming pool and event requirements. The fleet includes a curtain side and articulated dump truck and trailer for supplying general cartage services.

The business also comes with the option of a piece of machinery custom built for uprooting old vineyards or nursery tree lifting. A specialised service with little competition.

The current owners are unable to focus on the business due to alternative business commitments. The opportunity will appeal to an existing transport business looking to diversify or expand, or someone who is looking for an opportunity to grow a business and take advantage of the phenomenal growth that the Hawke's Bay region is experiencing.
