Midwest 4th Generation Machine Shop
Business Description
Precision swiss machining, thread rolling and center grinding
Seize a rare chance to acquire an established precision machining operation founded in 1940 and in continuous operation for over 80 years, now spanning four generations. This turnkey business provides immediate entry into high-demand sectors driving the ongoing reshoring surge.
The modern 7,120 sq. ft. facility is situated in a prime Midwestern metropolitan area with outstanding logistics and direct access to major domestic manufacturing hubs and transportation corridors.
With over 90% recurring revenue derived from long-term relationships with trusted OEM customers across aerospace, transportation, medical devices, heavy machinery, petroleum, defense-adjacent, and industrial sectors, the business benefits directly from federal manufacturing incentives and the shift away from foreign dependencies. These industries are central to the onshoring movement and poised for sustained demand growth.
The operation features advanced Swiss-style CNC machining centers, full CAD/CAM integration, and a comprehensive suite of precision capabilities—including CNC milling and drilling, thread rolling, centerless grinding, and more—delivering the tight tolerances essential for high-value reshored production.
Currently operating on a single efficient shift, the facility offers 100% immediate capacity expansion potential simply by adding a second shift, with no significant capital expenditure required to scale output. A healthy order backlog provides strong revenue visibility, while untapped capacity positions the business to capture substantial additional volume as nearshoring accelerates.
Serving a diversified mix of critical industries, the company stands ready to benefit disproportionately from America's manufacturing revival and the policy tailwinds encouraging domestic production.
This acquisition delivers immediate participation in the historic resurgence of U.S. manufacturing through proven customer relationships, cutting-edge capabilities, loyal recurring revenue, and built-in scalability. It represents a legacy platform with rock-solid fundamentals and powerful alignment with major economic trends.
Ideal for strategic acquirers, private equity groups, or entrepreneurs seeking a cash-flow-positive operation with significant expansion upside and direct exposure to high-growth reshoring themes.
Contact confidentially for detailed financials, customer overview, and facility information. Don't miss your opportunity to own a key player in America's industrial comeback.
