This is a superb opportunity to acquire a well-established, supplier of vehicle cleaning products based in Stanley, County Durham. The business is available on a leasehold basis.
The business operates as a leading supplier of professional vehicle cleaning products to trade customers. They have a loyal client base of 500 regular clients covering a huge area from the Northeast down to North Yorkshire. They supply their clients with a vast range of professional products from shampoos, traffic film removers, and specialist polishes, to wheel cleaners, degreasers, and ancillary products. All their chemical products have been carefully selected for concentration, quality, and ease of use. Although purchase price is an important aspect, the correct cost in use price is what differs this business from others, highly concentrated at the right price.
The business provides services to its established clientele through two sales representatives, each responsible for a designated geographical area. Every morning, the representatives replenish their vans at the central depot before visiting clients within their respective areas. They subsequently return to the depot in the evening. The two vehicles are included in the sale along with all other assets and stock. The business serves a diverse clientele, including car dealerships, coach companies, local authorities, Police and Fire Services.
