Established in 2015, this turnkey automotive wheel restoration, powder coating, and appearance-services business has grown over eleven years into a one-stop cosmetic customization shop serving the greater Atlanta metro. It operates from a ~17,000 SF facility and runs semi-absentee: the owner contributes roughly eight hours per week while a full management team and a defined ten-role staff handle daily operations on a modern ERP (Odoo) with documented standard operating procedures and open-book management.
The business generated approximately $1.25M in revenue in 2025 with about $161,000 in seller's discretionary earnings, and gross margins have expanded from roughly 27% to 59% over three years as the mix shifted toward high-margin powder coating and appearance work — paint protection film, ceramic coating, window tint, and wraps. Revenue is diversified and durable: no single customer exceeds 4% of revenue, the top ten accounts represent just 16.4%, and roughly two-thirds of revenue is relationship-driven through recurring commercial accounts (collision centers, dealerships, and tire and auto shops), alongside retail and enthusiast clientele. The shop is trusted by dealerships and exotic and luxury marques.
This opportunity is SBA pre-qualified with a Preferred lender — a qualified buyer can acquire it with roughly 10% down and finance the balance over ten years. It is an ideal fit for an owner-operator, an industry or strategic acquirer, or an investor who retains the in-place management team.
Clear growth levers remain: paid digital marketing is currently only about 4% of revenue; the business can add delivery routes, list on insurance estimating networks, expand higher-margin appearance services, and add a second shift within the existing facility.
The real estate is leased and not included in the sale; a new long-term lease will be structured with the buyer to match SBA financing requirements. Equipment is owned free and clear (with one leased paint system), and inventory is included. The owner will provide a hands-on transition and sign a non-compete. Reason for sale: the owner has systematized the business to the point that it no longer requires his daily involvement and is pursuing other ventures.
