A long-established car and commercial vehicle repairs business in the heart of Ripon, offered as a leasehold sale due to the owner's retirement. The premises are a large, functional industrial workshop with quality fixtures, fittings and vehicle servicing equipment already in place, supporting a loyal local and wider client base. Turnover exceeds £100,000 pa with gross profit around 43% and adjusted net profit circa £25,000.
The sale price is £45,000 plus stock at valuation (SAV). The current operation benefits from strong word-of-mouth and repeat custom; the owner will provide handover support to ensure a smooth transition. There is clear scope to grow revenues by broadening services and building an online presence, since most trade currently arrives offline.
The unit sits within an industrial estate in an affluent area of Ripon with excellent mobile signal but slow broadband. The leasehold nature of the business, and ongoing reliance on an established customer base, are important considerations for any purchaser. Early viewings are recommended for serious buyers seeking an established automotive business with immediate trading capability.
