Established Machinery Repair Shop In Cumbria For Sale

Business description

Preferred Commercial is pleased to offer for sale this long established machinery repair shop, which has been operated by our clients since 1987 and which is only now offered for sale due to our clients' wish to retire. The business is well-equipped with a vast range of repair equipment and tools used for a variety of gardening machines. There is also a display area for garden machinery sales. Our clients offer a specialist service in the area and are renowned for quality and value. They have developed a loyal customer base, which includes customers from the surrounding golf clubs, bowling greens, estates and private houses. The business is currently being run at a pace to suit our clients and trades 6 days per week, achieving a turnover in the region of £60,000 per annum with a gross profit of 60%. We feel the business could be easily run at the current pace and the new owner could expand the business further by, perhaps, utilising the outside space and establishing car repairs. This is an ideal opportunity for an owner/mechanic to acquire an already profitable business in such a lovely area. Early contact with Preferred Commercial is highly recommended.
