Summary
| Business Description: |
Car wash, detail center and one other related cash service business which are all state of the art services. Car wash is a tunnel wash with a parellel walkway, very upscale with numnerous merchadising opportunities presented to customers as they walk and watch their car through plate glass windows being soaped and sprayed through the wash. Average sale is $18/car (correct) The sales in 2010 were up 20% over 2009 so this is still in the growth phase. Already very profitable, this is an investment with a 30+ year productive cash flow horizon. Opportunity for a new owner to earn income before debt and income tax in the mid-6 figures.
|
| Historical Summary: |
The car wash and related businesses were completely redone from the ground up by the current owner. A car wash had been at this location for over 20 years but had been closed for 4 years prior to the current owner investing about a million dollars in all new equipment and leasehold improvements. Ther other 2 adjoining businesses were also redone from scratch. |
| Owner Qualifications: |
For someone already in the business, or a lucrative final career move for a serial entrepreneur. Current owner is full time hands on, and new owner would need to replace him or have a capable manager. |
| Competition: |
2 other pre-existing car washes in town. |
| Potential Growth: |
The current owner expects another double digit % increase in sales in 2011. Broker has detailed list of expansion possibilities
