CoGoGo welcomes to the market an exciting opportunity to acquire (on a business only basis) an exceptionally well run and thriving domestic appliance business that deals with repairs and sales and are service engineers. 

The Appliance group has been under the careful and meticulous ownership of our client since 1995, building up an enviable reputation within the sector and a true testament to the hard work and dedication from the current owner, resulting in the high calibre of business on offer. The business is now being offered for sale due to our client wishing to leave the industry after many successful years of trading as they look to take well-earned retirement in the near future.

The business offers services for the sales and installation of domestic and some commercial appliances, and also repair and supply spare parts for all appliances. To date the company has serviced almost 13,000 addresses, their clients include some of the largest Letting Agencies in their coverage area as well as smaller independent ones with over a dozen agencies contracted to them.

They are the sole provider of repairs and sales of domestic and commercial appliances to a large care home chain of which there are a number in and around Stoke-on-Trent and Newcastle under Lyme as well as other care homes, some with multiple sites.

The business is also the sole provider for local city council schools in repairing the washing machines situated in school kitchens and replacing those machines as necessary. They do very little in the way of marketing the business but do have excellent website presence, the business is continually growing based on the strength of their service relationship with existing clients who consistently recommend their services to others.

The business prides itself on customer service and being easily contactable as well as having an honest approach when visiting the customers premises and advising on repair or replacement.

All appliances are catered for whether built-in or freestanding and, for new appliances they offer a no-nonsense single price which includes delivery, installation, removal of the old appliance and packaging and then testing the appliance and showing the customer how to use it.

We feel there is scope to increase turnover with the undertaking of a robust marketing campaign via local press, social media, and further promotion of the dedicated website, along with the introduction of some further products and appliances.

There is so much potential for growth in the business. The business currently receives daily enquiries for repairs services to refrigeration and gas appliances, but the work is being passed to others. The new buyer could easily carry out the work in-house. 

This is a highly desirable business with an excellent business model in place and would be a very attractive proposition for either an individual or partnership looking for their first business in this sector which is already established, or for an experienced operator looking for an additional business with an attractive income stream.

A tremendous opportunity to own this well-established and popular business, with the current owner happy to offer a hand over period. Early enquiries are highly recommended to avoid disappointment.

Location
The business is currently located in Stoke on Trent and covers the following areas, ST1 to ST21 and South Cheshire from CW1 to CW12 with Coverage including areas from Junction 12 to junction 20 on the M6 motorway.

Due to the nature of the sale on a business only basis, it could easily be relocated to any of the surrounding areas to maintain service coverage.
