About the Business
- Years in Operation
- 2
- Facilities & Assets
- There are 3 structures on the Property designated as Building Nos 1, 2 and 3
- Market Outlook / Competition
- The business operates in the greater Charleston region, where population and commercial growth continue to drive strong demand for diesel service and repair. Local competition is primarily focused on general automotive repair, with fewer shops offering diesel specialization or fleet-level diagnostic capability. This positioning allows the company to serve both individual diesel owners and commercial fleet operators seeking reliable, higher-skill service.
- Opportunities for Growth
- The company is well-positioned for expansion. Current operations include work for several fleets, with the opportunity to secure additional accounts in the fast-growing Charleston/Summerville corridor. A vehicle conveying at closing could be outfitted as a mobile service truck, creating a new revenue stream. In addition, adjacent facility space could be converted into extra bays or a complementary tire service, providing scalable capacity for a new owner.
