Garage Services and MoT Station in Barking Suffolk For Sale in Barking- Business 4 Sale .co.uk

Business Summary

Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this popular garage services, MoT station with retail premises, which was established in 1963 and which has been in our client's hands since 1992. The business is only now being placed on the market due to our client's retirement. The garage occupies a spacious site extending to approximately half an acre and boasts a well-equipped workshop and MoT bay, retail premises, which are currently unused, a detached house, which is currently 2 x 2-bedroom flats and a cottage. The business is run at a restricted pace to suit our client and generates a turnover in the region of £60,000 per annum with a gross profit of 70%. A new owner could easily increase turnover by operating at full capacity and by utilising the retail premises, perhaps as a convenience store, although it would be suitable for a variety of uses. The 2 flats and cottage are currently let out, generating additional income. There is a spacious forecourt to the front, which would be suitable for car sales, should a new owner desire. We feel this represents an ideal opportunity to acquire a well-established garage services business, set in such a delightful location and with huge scope for future growth. Early discussions with Preferred Commercial come highly recommended.
