Business profile:
There are two income streams within this business;

a) Garage services
b) Graphic design

Each of the two sectors compliment each other and are located side by side within the companies excellently located leasehold premises.

The garage services business was established in 1995 and provides full repairs and servicing for domestic and light weight commercial vehicles. This includes, servicing, mechanical and electrical repairs plus engine diagnostics, exhausts, tyres and fitting of alarms and sat nav systems. They have regular customers and have a good name and reputation for their quality of service and reliability. The business regularly has to turn work away as they are continually working at full capacity.

The graphics arm of the business has been established for over three years and benefits from a steady flow of customers that use the garage services. They are able to design and produce attractive livery graphics for cars and trucks and also produce shop signs, banners, window stickers and printed T’ shirts as an add on to their core business.

Both businesses have a highly visible location on a busy main road on the edge of the town centre. There is good access to both the garage services and the graphics with heavy daily passing traffic.

This is a perfect business for someone to take over and grow. It is easy to run, has good growth opportunities and runs with low overheads. The asking price reflects the fact that the owners are looking for a quick sale and early viewing of this investment opportunity is advised

Facilities:

The business runs from a leasehold unit on the edge of the town centre with a reception, garage and a separate workshop for the graphics. The premises are circa 1,651 square feet. The rent is circa £10,560 per annum with rates of circa £2,500 per annum. The lease runs until 2012

Growth Potential:

The garage services are not approved to perform MOT’s. At present these are all sub-contracted out to a nearby MOT station.. With some further investment an MOT station could be built within the premises. The graphics arm of the business could easily handle more work which could be forthcoming from a concentrated marketing campaign within the local area.

Training/Support:

The vendor would be happy to help with a smooth transfer of the business in any way possible

Sale Reason:

The owner wishes to pursue another business opportunity
