Top Reasons to Acquire:
- Strong SDE and positive trend
- Strong and growing order pipeline
- Diversified OEM customer base
- Industrial Grade equipment
- Proven revenue capacity - lots of room for growth
- Automatically bypass meaningful barriers to entry for powder coating

Available individually or as a combined acquisition, these two Miramar corridor businesses represent a compelling entry into San Diego's contract manufacturing and industrial finishing sectors.

Primary Business - Contract Metal Fabricator
Established. Cash-Flowing. Ready for New Ownership with Owner/Operator.
A proven contract metal fabricator with a diverse customer base spanning defense, water treatment, construction, and medical industries. Multi-year customer relationships, experienced management in place, and a full shop floor ready to produce on day one.

Operations include: CNC turret presses, CNC press brakes, CNC mills, MIG/TIG welding, tube bending, and finishing -- a complete sheet metal fabrication platform serving a broad cross-section of San Diego's industrial economy.

Financial Snapshot:

2024 Rev: $3.7M SDE: $192K
2025 Rev: $3.7M SDE: $300K

Deal Terms:
• Total Price: $690,000
• Down Payment: $345,000 (2.8x SDE)
• Seller Financed -- no bank required

The right buyer already knows this world. They've run a shop, managed a production floor, sold into industrial accounts, or worked deep inside a business just like this one. They understand lead times, tooling, customer relationships, and what it takes to keep a fabrication operation running. This business doesn't need to be figured out, it needs an experienced operator to take ownership and grow it. The infrastructure is here. The customers are here. The upside is real for someone who knows what to do with it.

Ideal profiles: manufacturing professional ready to own, strategic buyer seeking established San Diego fabrication capacity, operator from an adjacent trade looking to expand their platform.


Secondary Business - Industrial Finishing Operation
$1.5M in Equipment. Facility in Place. Needs Demand.
A fully equipped powder coating and surface finishing facility operating in the same Miramar corridor. This business had a strong run through 2024 and lost its largest customer at the end of that year, creating a buying opportunity well below the value of the physical assets alone.

Financial Snapshot:

2023 Rev: $3.6M SDE: $336K
2024 Rev: $3.1M SDE: $560K
2025 Rev: $1.6M SDE: ($356K)

The 2024 numbers show what this operation looks like with a healthy customer base. The 2025 decline is a single-customer story, not an operational one.

Deal Terms:
• Total Price: $350,000
• Down Payment: $157,000
• Seller Financed -- acquiring ~$772K in equipment value for a fraction of replacement cost

The equipment:
• Full automated powder coating line -- $1.5M new retail
• Automatic and manual electrostatic spray systems
• Industrial walk-in batch curing ovens
• Wet sandblast and dry blast booths

Total new retail replacement value: ~$1.5M. The asking price is for the equipment—the business comes with it.

The right buyer is already in the finishing world and sees exactly what this is. If you are currently outsourcing your powder coating and writing checks to someone else every month, that stops on day one.

If you run a powder coating operation in another market and have been looking for a San Diego foothold, this is a fully equipped facility ready to receive work immediately; no buildout, no equipment procurement, no ramp-up time. The line is installed, the ovens are running, and the capacity is there. A buyer who walks in with demand can be at full production from the first week.

Ideal profiles:
- Fabricator or manufacturer currently outsourcing powder coating
- Powder coating operator expanding into the San Diego market
- Industrial finisher looking to add a second location
- Job shop owner seeking to vertically integrate.
