Hilton Smythe is delighted to welcome to the market Chelle’s Cabs. The business was established by our client in 2011. The owner is now looking to sell the business due to retirement.
The business runs as an exclusive airport, train or seaport taxi hire service. This is a great service that is highly popular in this location with a loyal and new customer base of around 100,000.
Chelle’s Cabs is the only company to provide a bespoke transfer service of this kind in the region.
Our client will accept a sensible offer for the mini-bus, trailer and child seats as they are not included in the sale price:-
Transit Mk6 14 passenger minibus, with COIF and 10 months PSV. Fully serviced. New tyres. Immaculate condition throughout. Twin axle purpose built luggage trailer. Easy access rear door. Suitable for up to 14 sets of golf clubs and luggage or 14 skis and luggage or more than enough for large 14 family holiday luggage.
We feel this business could be expanded further. The new purchaser should look to recruit another driver and also increase the amount of vehicles they have. This will allow for more transfers, therefore a boost in income.
The hire service does receive some custom from the website which promotes the business well. There is also a Facebook page which are regularly updated, and generate most custom.
This would be a brilliant opportunity for a buyer with a minibus looking for a side business or perhaps as a start-up business for a purchaser.
