    About this business

    The UK's Leading Supplier of Non Toxic Colour Powder Starling Corporate is proud to present a well-established, profitable UK e-commerce business operating as the country’s leading supplier of non-toxic colour throwing powder. Based in the North of England, the company has built a strong brand and a loyal repeat customer base over more than seven years of trading. It serves schools, charities, sports clubs, and event organisers nationwide, and operates alongside a complementary sister brand for Fundraising supplies, which is included in the sale.

    The core product range covers colour runs, school and charity fundraisers, sports club events, birthday parties, gender reveals, Rangoli art, and Holi festival celebrations. All powders are made with natural ingredients, formulated to be safe, non-toxic, and easy to clean up. The growing selection of event accessories includes hand cannons, squeeze bottles, medals, tutus, visors, and finish line ribbons.

    The global market for colour throwing powder is estimated to be worth between £75 million and £225 million. Within this growing market, our client has established itself as the UK market leader in its niche, serving a diverse and expanding customer base that spans the third sector, educational institutions, sports clubs, and individual consumers.

    The business is being offered for sale as a genuine retirement sale. The directors, having spent seven years building a successful and profitable enterprise, now wish to retire. There are no performance concerns, and the sellers are open to supporting a new owner through a full transition period to ensure continuity for staff, customers, and suppliers.

    With clear opportunities for expansion into new customer segments, bespoke merchandising, and a curated marketplace, the business is well-positioned for a new owner to take it to its next chapter of growth.

    Offers are invited and Enquiries are encouraged.

    Seriously interested parties are advised to contact Starling Corporate for a detailed Information Memorandum outlining further details, financials and market analysis.
