Very Successful Investment Commercial Light Industrial Units In Lancashire

Commercial Road are pleased to invite offers or 2 industrial units with a yard which would make a good investment opportunity as currently trading as an MOT testing, tyre fitting and general service and repair garage based in West Lancashire. The business could could potentially be sold separately on a leasehold basis.

The large yard and 2 large workshops give the opportunity for a new owner to either continue with the existing business or to establish a new one in a different industry.

A large selection of equipment is included in this sale which consists of four and two post ramps, break rollers, emission machines, air compressor and tyre fitting/balancing machines.

The yard the workshops are situated within is surrounded by a large fence and the main gate is internally locked and fitted with a high quality closed shackle padlock. A red care alarm covers all the workshops and gives full security to the business and premises.

Despite successfully trading for the last 13 years at these freehold premises and 30 years in total, the current owner still believes there is vast opportunity to increase turnover. Utilising the large yard to potentially sell a range of vehicles could significantly improve income. A valeting service is something that also could be incorporated either to go with the servicing and MOT business or as a stand alone offering.

The business currently trades between 8.30 and 6pm during the week but the owner believes that a new owner could really benefit if he offered an evening service. This could allow customers to drop off their vehicles at night and pick it up the following morning so that it didn’t effect their own working day. If this was advertised this could significantly improve the existing database of customers and again improve turnover.

One of the workshops is currently rented out to another business and if the new owner opted to keep this arrangement they would benefit from a steady monthly income source.

There is a reception area and office that isn’t currently being used by the owner with a roller shutter entrance onto the main road. This is something that a new owner could develop if they wanted to use it or alternatively could sub-let this area.

The owner has reluctantly decided to sell the business so that he can retire but is still willing to offer 2-3 weeks post-handover support to any new owner.
