G'day, I'm Pete Seligman. There are a growing number of people thinking about buying a business in this region, but it can be hard to see what that actually looks like. So to help bring one part of that process to life, I've teamed up with my mates Jason Andrew and James Frank to throw some businesses on the table and share our raw thoughts on each. This is 'Eta Down Under'. We hope you enjoy it! In our inaugural episode, Jason introduces a diverse range of businesses, from a vertically integrated pallets venture to a high-end home and gift business. We delve into opportunities, exploring a 4-million-dollar rental solutions business and a 7-million-dollar engineering gem in southeast Queensland. The spotlight turns to the pallets business, dissecting its manufacturing dynamics, selling strategies, and the challenges of the rental model. Jason's insights spark a spirited conversation on potential innovations, regional significance, pricing strategies, and operational intricacies.

A trailer-mill allows the business to cut wood to size, reducing offcuts and stock wastage. Production/General manager runs the daily operations with non-exec owner living interstate.
