Market Competition and Expansion:
Average competition in area, but well known, established center, customer service, drop-off/pick-up service, quality jobs with quick turn-around service and in-stock supplies has made this business stand out from the competition. Large, comfortable waiting area and friendly/knowledgeable service stands out.
Business has historically only open 4 days/week. Recently added Saturday's in 2011 and mechanic in 2011. Owner has not promoted service side of business which results in lower margins than average Tire/Service center. Good opportunity for Buyer to take this business to the next level for higher margin service-related repairs & maintenance. Begining 2nd qtr 2011, business expanded hrs to Saturday and added mechanic to capture higher margin auto repair work. Seeing strong growth in Sales (15%). Spartanburg sprawl and the newly completed industrial park only 1.5 miles down the same road will continue to add to the traffic counts.
