Auto Repairs MoT And Tyres In Dorset For Sale

Business description

Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this thriving garage and MoT centre, which was established by our client in 1989. The business is only now offered to the market due to our client's wish to retire. The premises are well-equipped to suit the trade with a large industrial workshop, reception area and private parking facilities. The business has an excellent reputation and enjoys much repeat trade and word of mouth recommendations. The garage benefits from a high footfall from the surrounding area and from being situated close to the town centre. Our client offers high quality car servicing, repairs, MOT testing and is also a tyre centre. The business trades 6 days a week and generates a turnover in the region of £500,000 with a gross profit of 50%. We feel this could be further increased by establishing a recovery service. The new owner could, if desired, establish a simple marketing campaign to generate more custom. This is an ideal opportunity to acquire an already thriving garage and MoT centre with huge scope for future development. Early negotiations with Preferred Commercial must be highly recommended.
