In addition to performing regular service and repairs, the shop has specially trained and experienced techs / mechanics.
Customer loyalty to the business is high based on results in the context of a performance-focused and friendly feeling culture.
This would be an excellent strategic acquisition to enhance current capabilities for an existing shop.
This would also be an excellent opportunity for an experienced mechanic or service writer to enhance and grow the business further by being full time “boots on the shop floor”.
The shop has a premier location. .
Additional growth can also be achieved by opening on Saturdays for greater customer convenience.
