| Business Description: |
This is an excellent opportunity to acquire an established, automotive repair shop in a high-traffic South San Jose location. This business opened twenty four years ago with the goal of providing high-quality services with a personal touch
The shop offers a full range of automotive repair services including engine diagnostics, scheduled maintenance and tune-ups, cooling system and air conditioning service, suspension, brake service and timing belts. In addition, smog check services are provided using an in-ground dynamometer. Customers with all types of vehicles rely on this shop to provide high-quality service at prices below their automobile dealer’s service departments . There is dedicated large customer base of approximately 3500 names compiled over the last five years.
The store is mature and sales have averaged $270K per year over the last three years. Despite a difficult economy, earnings over the same period have been solid as well.
Located in an auto complex, the facility is approximately 1800 square feet with two bays equipped with above ground lifts, office, and reception/customer waiting area. The owner oversees the business and acts as the service-writer in support of one master technician. This is an excellent opportunity for a family run operation.
