Garage And Car Sales Business In Suffolk For Sale

Business description

Preferred Commercial is pleased to offer for sale this family run garage and car sales business, which was established by our client in 1978 and which is only now being placed on the market due to our client's wish to retire. The business trades 7-days per week and generates a turnover in the region of £1,200.000 per annum with a gross profit of 12%, derived from offering vehicle sales, repair and servicing, as well as car valeting services. The business is set in 2 acres and boasts large workshops, which are well-equipped to suit the trade, as well as a showroom and car sales forecourt. The premises also benefit from comprehensive CCTV security system to the perimeter, which includes security lighting, voice box alarm system and security gates to the compound. Our client has gained an excellent reputation and a loyal customer base by offering a professional and high quality service, which ensures much repeat trade and new business is referred by word of mouth recommendations. There is a website in place, which provides comprehensive vehicle sales information, as well as other garage services. Our client advises us that planning consent for an additional showroom building has been granted. This is an ideal opportunity to acquire a busy car sales, repair and servicing business, situated in a thriving area and in a walk-in-and-trade condition. Early negotiations with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
