50+ Year Established Auto Repair & Service Shop - Owner Retiring

This is an opportunity to acquire a long-standing, family-owned automotive repair business with operating history dating back to the 1960s. Located in Northeast Florida - this company has served its local market for more than 50+ years and has developed an established reputation. Services: Management estimates that approximately 30% to 40% of revenue is generated from routine services with approximately 60% to 70% generated from more specialized jobs such as engine work, transmission repair and electrical diagnostics.

The shop’s labor rates are reportedly 25% to 30% below nearby dealership service departments which may provide room for a new buyer to modernize pricing while maintaining a competitive position in the local market. Additionally the business operates in an established commercial corridor with nearby development that the seller expects to support increased vehicle traffic, visibility, and local customer awareness once completed. The current owner is looking to retire.

The seller is willing to provide a standard transition period of approximately three months and remain reasonably available thereafter as needed subject to mutually agreed terms. For the real estate, the owner also owns the underlying real estate and is open to discussing a potential sale of the property to a buyer or a potential lease. The company has historically relied primarily on word-of-mouth referrals and has completed little to no formal professional marketing to date - given its brand awareness in the local community for great service work.

The seller is open to different buyers - an owner-operator, existing automotive repair platform, strategic buyer, independent sponsor, or family office seeking an established service business with a long operating history. Experience with Auto Repair preferred.
