This is a rare opportunity to acquire an established, fully operational Maaco Collision Repair and Auto Painting franchise in Gaithersburg, Maryland, one of the strongest automotive markets in the Mid-Atlantic region.

The Business
This center has been open since 2008 and has built a solid reputation in the Montgomery County market over nearly 18 years. The shop runs out of a 10,229 square foot facility with 4 bays, fully equipped with paint booths, compressors, frame equipment, lifts, and a complete paint mixing system. The center is fleet certified with active national account relationships and serves a healthy mix of retail and commercial customers.

The Team
The people here are a real asset. All 10 non-owner employees are expected to stay post-sale, including an experienced shop manager, office manager, two body technicians, a painter, and a dedicated prep team. In today's labor market, stepping into a trained and tenured crew is something that would take a new operator years and significant money to build from scratch.

The Opportunity
Revenue reached $2M in 2023 and has softened in recent years as the owner has stepped back ahead of retirement. Fleet activity has slowed across the industry, but retail customer retention has been trending in the right direction. A hands-on owner with a focus on local marketing and fleet development has a clear path to getting this center back to where it was.
