3 main reasons for choosing Phuket
Excellent diving with an enormous amount of fish and an impressive biodiversity. Diving takes place all year round, with the main season running between October and April. The tropical climate ensures pleasant air and water temperatures all year round.
Phuket Island blends western convenience with Thai serenity. Visitors can move freely and safely to explore the country and its people up close. In addition to diving and relaxing on dream beaches, there are countless other leisure activities that guarantee an eventful and unforgettable vacation.
A popular holiday destination with easy arrival thanks to direct flights from many countries around the world. Phuket has the second busiest international airport in Thailand with excellent flight connections.
Recipe for success
The diving company is run by the two owners with great personal commitment and tireless efforts. This reflects the philosophy where the focus is on the experience and not on profit. Diving enthusiasts and ocean lovers, or those who want to become one, will appreciate this.
During the pandemic, the owners managed to maintain operations with new, creative fields of activity, among other things. This can also be attributed to an independent and cost-lean entrepreneurial structure.
Current potential for expansion
Since the entry requirements and Covid restrictions for Phuket were relaxed, the demand for diving activities and diving courses has increased sharply from the start. The offer, in turn, is no longer available indefinitely and a redistribution is currently taking place in Phuket. This opens unique opportunities to increase the volume, including sales and profit, with appropriate resources (personnel, financial resources, shop location, etc.). Another line of business that can be expanded is the yacht service that has already started (ship hull cleaning and inspections, etc.).
Selling price
The sales price is 10 million Baht (approx USD 300’000) and consists of the assets as well as the sales and profit to be achieved in the next 5 years.
