Taxi Service And Vehicle Repair Business Watton Norfolk For Sale

Business description

Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this busy 24/7 taxi service and vehicle repair business, which was established by our client in 1989 and which is only now being offered to the market due to our client's other business interests. The business trades 7 days a week and generates a turnover in the region of £416,000 per annum with a gross profit of 50%. Our client offers a 24/7 pre-booked taxi service, along with vehicle repairs and servicing. We feel the turnover could be further increased by embarking on a modest marketing campaign and establishing a website advertising the business and services provided. The business has an enviable reputation and is renowned for providing a quick and reliable taxi service. The premises are well-equipped to suit the trade and boast a spacious workshop with space for an MoT bay, subject to planning permission being granted. There are also 9 vehicles included in the sale worth approximately £50,000. We feel this represents an ideal opportunity to acquire an already busy taxi service and vehicle repair business with huge scope for future growth. Early negotiations with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
