Vehicle Repairs And Servicing In Poole Dorset For Sale

Business description

Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this busy vehicle repair and servicing business, which was established in 1998 and which is only now offered to the market due to our client's wish to emigrate. The business trades 5½ days a week and generates a turnover in the region of £118,000 per annum with a gross profit of 53%. CDS Motor Services offer vehicles repair and servicing. We feel the turnover could be further increased from the introduction of a class 4 MoT bay, which is currently in the application stage. The garage has a loyal customer base, enjoying much repeat trade and word of mouth recommendations. Our client has gained an excellent reputation and is a member of the Good Garage Scheme. There is a website in place advertising the business and services provided. The premises have been fitted to a high standard throughout and boast a spacious workshop with a range of equipment. This is an ideal opportunity to acquire an already busy garage with huge scope for future growth. Early negotiations with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
