Freehold Garage In Baldock Hertfordshire For Sale

Business description

Phoenix Business Transfer Agents are pleased to offer to the market this freehold garage. The business was established by our client in 1988. It is now being placed on the market due to our client’s ill health.
Financial Details
The turnover for 2008 is expected to be in the region of £75,000 with a net profit of approximately £35,000.

The business offers servicing, air conditioning repair and servicing, diagnostics and provides tyres for all types of motor vehicles. The charging rate is £45.00 per hour.

The business enjoys a huge and loyal client base and the concern benefits from an excellent local reputation.

In recent years due to our client’s ill health, the business has not performed to any where near its full capacity. Recently our client had to shut the business down for a few months whilst recovering and this has affected the turnover and profits.

The business has huge potential with the more marketing and especially taking more advantage of the local Tesco customers the business could flourish and turnover could easily be doubled. Our client doesn’t operate on Saturdays for which there is certainly scope to expand the business.

The freehold premises offer an exceptionally good commercial property for future investment.
