This very good business opportunity provides automotive service & repairs, convenience store and car wash.
Staffing
The concern employs no staff and is family run.
Owners Role
The owner is involved in the day to day running of the business.
Marketing
No marketing or promoting of the business has recently been undertaken as the business is well known.
Competition
There is no local competition.
Market
The client base consists of local residents and businesses within a 10 to 15 mile radius.
Opportunities
The concern has huge potential. In particular the turnover and profits can be increased by:
• Increasing the services to include MOT and additional mechanical servicing (planning permission is already in place and the workshop and car hoists are present.
• Becoming more efficient with staffing levels.
• Takeover ownership of the convenience store and service & repairs.
• There is plenty of scope to re-introduce petrol, diesel and LPG services.
• Working more hands on hours and saving on wages.
• With the introduction of a website and e-commerce.
Training and Handover
The owner would be available for an extensive training and handover period for the benefit of the new owners if required. The owner would also be happy for an on the job observation period to assess the business prior to offers being made.
The present annual turnover is £40,800 from rental income.
The potential turnover of the business within the next 2 years is forecast to reach £140,000 pa if the MOT centre is sub let, however the full potential turnover given the changes of ownership of the various services required to be made to the business could easily generate up to £350,000 pa. Full financial disclosure is available on request after viewings and the signing of a confidentiality agreement.
