ESTABLISHED AUTO AND HEAVY TRUCK BODY REPAIR SHOP - TURNKEY OPPORTUNITY

This well-established collision repair business has been serving the Joliet, Illinois community since 2010, building a solid reputation and loyal customer base over nearly five decades of operation since we first opened in Palos. Located conveniently near main streets with easy accessibility, this turnkey operation represents an exceptional opportunity in the necessity-based auto body repair industry.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE:
The business generates strong annual revenue of $617,000, demonstrating consistent performance in a stable market driven by local vehicle traffic and insurance repair work. The collision repair industry benefits from recession-resistant demand, as vehicle repairs remain essential regardless of economic conditions.

FACILITY AND EQUIPMENT:
The sale includes a 3,000 square foot owned building valued at $300,000, eliminating future rent obligations and providing valuable real estate equity. The facility comes fully equipped with $65,000 in furniture, fixtures, and equipment necessary for comprehensive auto and heavy truck body repair operations. The shop is immediately operational with all systems in place.

MARKET POSITION:
Operating in a strong market with consistent demand, the business maintains established relationships with customers, vendors, and insurance providers. High barriers to entry, including significant equipment costs, help protect market position against new competitors.

GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES:
Substantial expansion potential exists through additional insurance and fleet partnerships, enhanced marketing initiatives, and workflow optimization. The facility has capacity to support increased volume through additional staffing or extended hours. Revenue diversification opportunities include paint less dent repair, detailing, glass replacement, and custom restoration services.

TRANSITION SUPPORT:
The sale includes optional established client lists and customer records, enabling immediate continuation of operations. While formal training isn't provided, the comprehensive customer database facilitates smooth ownership transition.

This represents a rare opportunity to acquire a profitable, established business with real estate in a necessity-based industry with strong growth potential.
