- Market Outlook / Competition
- The business is located on a busy commercial street adjacent to a well-established residential neighborhood, is highly visible, and only 3 mins from a major highway. There is limited competition in the area. Sales are very steady with good owner cash flow every year, and no dip during covid.
- Opportunities for Growth
- Excellent opportunity for someone wanting to buy a HIGHLY PROFITABLE, well-established, business with a great reputation and very strong repeat customer base with growth potential.
The body shop has a current backlog of ~3 months which could be reduced with increased staffing thus yielding immediate growth, and the facility has the room for growth. The repair shop also has a backlog but more limited in space.
Sales could be increased by advertising which the Seller has rarely pursued, instead relying mostly on word of mouth and a great Google rating.
