BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
Scooter and Motorcycle Sales & Service

Ref.AL162
Location Teesside
Asking Price £ 120,000

This is a well run, all year round, family business which has been selling Scooters and Motorcycles up to 125cc since 2002. The business sells a number of well known brand names in its showroom with circa 35 mainly new on road and off road bikes on display.

The business has a separate clothing and accessories showroom and has also a service and repair department, which at present is rented out to a local self employed mechanic who works closely with all their servicing and repair requirements.

Upstairs, above the showroom, there is the potential to create a small flat with living room, bedroom, kitchen and toilet. This could either be utilized by the new owners as their own accommodation or rented out to create incremental revenue. There is the option to either lease the property or purchase the freehold from the vendor.

The building is in sound order with excellent potential for someone wanting to start off their own small business. There is no competition in the area and the current owner is selling the business with all assets and stock included in the sale price. This is an excellent opportunity for someone with a passion for bikes to take advantage of the sound footing that the owner has built for this company and take it forward to the next level.

Expansion Potential
The vendor now wishes to retire and he has suggested that sales would increase by keeping a wider and bigger range of bikes and accessories in stock.

The company owns its domain name but as yet they have not developed their own website. Many other UK retailers have benefited enormously from on line sales and this is definitely one area that could and should be targeted.

The building has great potential for extra income to come from the upstairs, which could easily be used as a self contained flat. With a small investment the upstairs could be easily converted into an extra revenue stream.
