One of our owners has continuous health issues and we would like to sell the business instead of breaking it all up. What goes with Rockn B Horse Carriage?
1. 6 different carriages/wagons, hitches, seating, decorations, and a cart. Cinderella, white traditional, limo/surrey, black touring wagon, (we call) 20 person church pew wagon with cart, and lastly 3 seat red sleigh.
2. 2 gooseneck trailers: one is 32 ft long, 76" W, additional 29" added to height for tall carriages; and one is 20 ft. Both equipped with winches, chains, hooks and ramps to roll in carriages. Both are enclosed for winter and removal walls in summer. Both are travel ready. Both have spare real tires. The 20 ft was completely remodeled in 21 and the 32 ft remodeled for added height in 22.
3. 1983 Chev square body 3/4 ton truck, dual tires, standard, gas, attached tool chest on bed, bed has elevated goose neck, chain hooks. Good work truck.
4. 2 black Percheron Horses, 6 and 7 years old, in excellent condition, road ready, will travel well, great team or single, farrier every 6 weeks, bare feet, grain and grass feed, good healthy coats.
5. dual horse tack for double/team driving and single for each driving, winter travel coats/horse blankets, halters, and a 4 team hitch driving tack.
6. business assets: domain, web site, pages, twitter, etc. Also own several other domains that arrows to main one, and several pages.
7. Blankets for people in carriages. Decorations for each event for horses and carriages. P**p bags.
8. Currently holding contracts for rest of 2023 season that will generate income, esp at Christmas. Provide all contracts, name holders, and assist in smooth transaction for transfer. Contracts for 2024 season. Typically work year is every month except January.
Note: prior to 2020 (Covid) year, we had 3 trucks, 3 trailers, plenty of carriage drivers and work every weekend, providing a good steady flow in income for both of us and kept drivers/caretakers busy also. We ran on Friday nights, Saturday nights, had began historic tours downtown BGKY. In addition, due to our ability to travel, we have been at events/wedding as far away as Birmingham AL, TN, Lexington KY, Southern IN, and cover KY on east side of Lake Barkley all the way over I75 with occasional requests in Eastern KY. There are only about 3-4 carriage businesses in KY, thus we do not travel to 'their' territory and they respect ours, while we all recommend each other if its out of our territory.
*This has been a wonderful way of life and income for both of us. We have provided smiles and joy all along our clients, friends, and more. We have wonderful, satisfying relationships with our client contracts. We provided the upmost customer satisfaction and tried our very best to 'make it happen' at every opportunity.
Now is the time to step out of the arena of this business. We may be able to provide some assistance to get started and/or continue in our steps. This all depends on health issues.
**This business is listed by a business broker who can provide much more information. Thank you for reading and I hope you will pass this along across the internet. Someone would really appreciate a job in this area that has already been set up to run.
