Business Details
Freehold Garage & MOT Centre
Gator Business Sales is delighted to be able to offer for sale this highly regarded garage and MOT centre, that has been successfully trading from its current location for in excess of 36 years.Â
Mere Garage provides a comprehensive range of vehicle services including general repairs and maintenance, diagnostics, tyres, exhausts and brakes, etc. It also undertakes approx. 700 MOT tests per year. Â
The business is ideally located on an industrial estate, but very close to several residential areas. Customers are predominantly private individuals, although the garage does undertake some small fleet work.
Parking, often a challenge with garages, is not a problem here, with spaces to the front and side, together with a large parking area at the rear of the premises.
Lots of expansion opportunities for new owners. The garage undertakes very little marketing and currently only opens 5 days per week – no Saturdays.   Â
Skilled employees, including two MOT testers, to transfer.
This is a turn-key purchase opportunity of an exceptionally well established and consistently profitable business, whose sale is being brought about by the planned retirement of the owner. The acquisition will be of interest as a bolt-on for companies in the same or allied industries, but will be particularly attractive to purchasers as a standalone business, with the new owner(s) looking to replicate the role of our client.Â
Whilst the strong preference of the vendor is to sell the business and freehold at the same time, he may consider an initial leasehold sale to suitably skilled and qualified purchasers.Â
Please note: The vendor has requested that no direct approach should be made to them or their staff, and all requests for information need to be made via Gator Business Sales.Â
Trading Hours: Monday-Friday: 8.30am-5.30pm.
Employees: Three technicians will transfer with the sale.
Location: Ideally located within a busy industrial area.Â
Premises Details: Two storey premises briefly comprising a reception area, workshop and staff facilities on the ground floor, with an office and storage on the first floor.Â
Reason for Sale: This is a genuine retirement sale with the vendor being 66 years of age.  Â
