Busy Car Sales Business In Cleckheaton West Yorkshire For Sale

Business description

Preferred Commercial is pleased to offer for sale this busy car sales business, which was established in the 1970s and which has been in our client's hands since 2007. The business is only now being placed on the market due to our client's other business interests. G5 Cars boasts a large car sales forecourt for up to 80 vehicles, showroom, workshops and hand car wash, generating a turnover in the region of £1,300,000 per annum with a gross profit of 25%. A new owner could easily increase turnover by establishing a website listing vehicles for sale and services offered. The site was previously a petrol station and we believe this could be reinstated. There is also scope to offer MoT testing, subject to necessary authorisation. We are advised our client would be willing to offer a new owner a hand-over period to give an overview of the business and make introductions to contacts and companies. We feel this represents an ideal opportunity to acquire a thriving car sales business with a growing turnover. Early discussions with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
