BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
Automotive Car Parts Distributor
4 X 4 Specialist
Ref.AL211
Location North Yorkshire
Asking Price £ 99,000
This well established and reputable business was set up over 35 years ago and in that time has grown into a highly professional and respected supply company providing a broad range of motor parts and components to the motor trade throughout North Yorkshire, Lancashire and the West Yorkshire regions.
The business specialises in certain distinctive 4 x 4 manufacturers components (both original equipment and non OEM parts) as well as serving the conventional motor vehicle market. The company has a large and loyal client base (and supply base for that matter) that it has built up over time and enjoys good levels of repeat business such is its standing in the markets it serves so well. This is evident in the consistent business levels the organisation enjoys and the impressive profits generated.
The company holds good levels of stock (circa £30,000) and has well equipped premises where it operates from. The business could remain in its current location or be easily relocated if need be.
Expansion Potential
The company has access to further product ranges and could easily expand its product offering to incorporate more products and services. The current infrastructure could certainly accommodate this. A more proactive approach to sales and especially e-commerce would also improve performance. To date the business does have a very basic website which would benefit greatly from further development.
Market / Competition / Non-Competition Agreements
The business enjoys high levels of repeat business, word of mouth recommendations and referrals but could benefit from a more strategic medium/long term sales and marketing campaign. It has very minimal internet presence to date but does occasionally undertake some direct advertising in local papers.
