An exceptional opportunity to acquire one of Victoria's well-established access equipment hire businesses, servicing commercial builders, industrial contractors, infrastructure projects and major construction companies for over 12 years.
Generating approximately $1 million in annual revenue, Rapid Platforms & Training has built an outstanding reputation through reliable equipment, exceptional customer service and long-standing commercial relationships.
A standout feature of this opportunity is the inclusion of an extensive fleet of more than 180 access machines, with an estimated replacement value of approximately $2.4 million. Building an operation of this scale from the ground up would require years of investment, significant capital and extensive industry relationships. Here, the infrastructure is already established, fully operational and generating consistent commercial revenue from day one, allowing a purchaser to step straight into a proven business without the time, cost or uncertainty of starting from scratch.
Specialising in scissor lifts, boom lifts and elevated work platforms, the business enjoys strong repeat clientele and long-term commercial contracts, with fleet utilisation averaging approximately 85%. Many machines remain on major projects for periods of six to eight months, creating predictable recurring revenue and excellent cash flow.
The business has been fully systemised with integrated fleet management software, preventative maintenance scheduling and an in-house service department, ensuring efficient day-to-day operations and maximum equipment uptime. Approximately 90% of the fleet is fitted with crush protection technology, reflecting the company's commitment to safety, compliance and ongoing investment.
In addition to equipment hire, the business generates further income through EWPA accredited training and Verification of Competency (VOC) services, creating diversified revenue streams and strengthening long-term client relationships.
Operating from spacious commercial premises, the business includes a large warehouse, dedicated workshop, operational office, multiple additional offices and underutilised showroom space, providing excellent capacity for future growth without the need to relocate.
Whether you're an existing hire company looking to expand, an industry operator seeking immediate scale or an investor searching for a profitable business backed by substantial tangible assets, opportunities of this calibre rarely become available.
