Rare opportunity to acquire Pelican Car Wash & Quick Lube, a fully operational, high-traffic full-service car wash, oil change shop, and 3-bay mechanic center located on US-19, one of the busiest thoroughfares in the region. Unlike the saturated market of express exterior car washes, Pelican stands out as one of only a handful of true full-service car washes within miles, offering complete interior and exterior care, detail packages, and mechanical services under one roof.

The property features an expansive lot with ample parking, a comfortable indoor waiting area with A/C, and room for expansion or repurposing thanks to the large layout. The mechanic shop includes three bays, each large enough to accommodate two vehicles at a time, offering an excellent footprint for increasing repair volume or leasing to a separate operator. Also includes a quick lube service line, streamlining oil changes and basic maintenance.

While recent road construction has temporarily impacted traffic, this creates a prime opportunity for a buyer to step in at a discount before the area booms again. The business has loyal long-term clientele, especially among nearby retirees and residents in surrounding 55+ communities, and strong margins on detailing, oil changes, and upsells.

A smart operator can quickly increase volume and revenue with minimal capital by focusing on local marketing, review generation, and community engagement. Excellent opportunity for a hands-on owner, multi-location operator, or investor looking for a unique asset with both business and real estate upside.

Rare opportunity to acquire Pelican Car Wash & Quick Lube, a fully operational, high-traffic full-service car wash, oil change shop, and 3-bay mechanic center located on US-19, one of the busiest thoroughfares in the region. Unlike the saturated market of express exterior car washes, Pelican stands out as one of only a handful of true full-service car washes within miles, offering complete interior and exterior care, detail packages, and mechanical services under one roof.
Market Outlook / Competition
Pelican Car Wash is one of the only true full-service car washes in a high-traffic corridor—offering interior cleaning, detailing, oil changes, and mechanical services. Competing express-only washes lack our hands-on care, especially valued by loyal 55+ customers.

The 3-bay mechanic shop is underutilized, offering strong upside for expansion or lease.
Opportunities for Growth
Growth Opportunities: Expand marketing to 55+ communities, increase Google reviews, and add memberships or upsell packages. The underused 3-bay mechanic shop could be leased or scaled into a profitable service center. Room to boost volume post-road construction.

Pros: Strong local demand, room for service expansion, prime location, real estate included.
Cons: Current mechanic usage is low, traffic recently impacted by nearby construction (temporary).
