This business was founded in 2007 by the Vendors as a specialist Mercedes online retail business, within the premium motor industry, with an investment in a professional e-commerce website and now has a trading history with products and supply relationships in place.
This established website and business trading name represent significant assets and are of great value in the products marketed. The products are displayed on extremely attractive web pages providing the customer with the fullest possible context for choice options that include many specialist products for the premium Mercedes car range, with products including Sat-Nav’s, in car phone and audio systems, retrofit items, tools, accessories and gifts etc.
The products are currently marketed in the UK and overseas through the company’s own e-commerce website and through e-bay. The business also benefits from being only one of four distributors within the UK on several of the products, thus offering a degree of exclusivity.
Currently nobody works full time in the business with the owners inputting approximately just 2-3 hours per day in total, thus making this an excellent opportunity for any investor seeking an opportunity to invest in a new business that is ready to go with a full portfolio of products and significant scope for future income with a more focussed approach to the business. The current owners feel this would particularly appeal to a German car main agent, who desires an online presence, through which to market additional product lines to an established customer base.

High quality service, with flexibility, honesty, reliability and good value, every order request is important and customers always come first. The result is self evident in the business’s sustained level of repeat business.
Key Strengths:
With a superb website, excellent marketing and competitive prices the business not only generates a large number of repeat customers but also benefits from lots of recommendations. They are established and very profitable, with a loyal and growing customer base, retaining a high level of repeat business, particularly among a number of customers returning on a regular basis.
Growth and Expansion:
The premium car market is growing and is forecast in the near and longer term for significant growth. The business is well positioned to take maximum advantage of this growth as it occurs.
Key Opportunities:
This is an outstanding opportunity to build on the existing services and customer base of this company. With a strong demand for services combined with a capacity to increase turnover, a new owner contributing fresh ideas and investment in resources will have every advantage of building on an excellent platform.
Advertising and Marketing:
The business has used limited industry specific advertising in the past and there are excellent opportunities to increase this and market the business more aggressively to significantly increase turnover. The bulk of the company’s focus on marketing has been a keen and determined approach to search engine optimisation thus ensuring the business is always at the top, or close to the top, of all search engine searches.
Equipment:

Premises:
The business is currently run from home so has no onerous leases to resolve, making it fully re-locatable to any location suitable to new owner.

Reason for Sale:
