BUSINESS DESCRIPTION

Trusted in the community since 1999, this highly successful repair shop has earned a stellar reputation for offering unparalleled service to its longstanding and loyal customer base. For the better part of two decades it has established itself as the leading electrical system repair center in the Greater Fresno Area, specializing in electrical issues in cars, trucks, RV’s, and even handling major electrical issues for other dealer service centers in the market. Boasting over 25 years at the same location, the shop is also a premier destination for providing a wide spectrum of additional maintenance services such as oil changes, tune-ups, AC service, ABS brake systems, engine diagnostics, airbag warning systems, new engine or transmission installation, and everything in between.

The turn-key facilities feature a well configured, multi-service bay setup. The expansive 6,500 square foot shop space is fully outfitted with all of the necessary tools and equipment to carry out the wide range of services offered. Included are 4 two-post car lifts, an engine lift, engine stands, transmission jacks, AC service & recover machine, tire machine, wheel balancer, and a host of other specialty tools. A comprehensive Equipment List can be provided upon request. Additionally, there are 4 flat ground spaces which are covered, so there is ample room for new ownership to expand staff and services if desired.
The total lot size is a vast 60,703 square feet and is fully encosed by a wrought iron fence with automatic entrance, making parking and storage capacity essentially unlimited. The owner spared no expense and had blacktop installed around the entire parcel, affording the entirety of the lot with full usability. There are also two outbuildings on site, one of which is an air conditioned office and the other being a dedicated tool room.

The business is managed to very high standards in order to ensure that all customers are fully satisfied with their service experience, and as a result it has developed a very loyal customer base over the years. The clientele is well established and diverse, with a mixture of both general public customers as well as a base of commercial accounts. All of the clientele is derived purely from repeat and referral business, with the owner spending no dollars on marketing.

All of the automotive repair services are performed by a team of highly qualified and tenured mechanics, some of which who have been with the company for an extended period of time. The dedicated team of skilled technicians are well trained and possess the necessary expertise to carry forward under a new operator, ensuring a higher probability for a smooth transition of ownership. The hours of operation are Monday to Friday from 8am to 5pm, and closed on both Saturday & Sunday, which affords the owner some time off on weekends.

The owner maintains clean books and the property is included in the sale, so the business should have no problem qualifying for SBA loan approval.
All of the operational infrastructure and client base are already in place, so this is truly an exceptional opportunity for someone to step seamlessly into a proven and profitable business.
