This business is a specialised carburettor service and restoration company, catering to classic car owners. Established in 2017 and based in Gloucester, the company has quickly built a solid reputation for providing high-quality, reliable, and personalized services to its clients.
Operating as a mail-in, mail-out service, customers send their carburettors from all over the UK (and occasionally from Europe and the USA) for refurbishment. The business is operated by the owner, who is hands-on, along with two part-time subcontractors. The owner is looking to retire and pass on this profitable and highly regarded business.
The business specialises in the restoration and servicing of carburettors for classic and vintage cars. Established in 2017, it operates from a well-equipped workshop in Gloucester.
The service includes ultrasonic cleaning, vapor blasting, and other specialist processes, some of which are outsourced to trusted external companies. The company handles approximately 750 carburettors per year, emphasizing the highest quality service to meet the exacting standards of classic car enthusiasts. Clients are primarily from the UK, with occasional international orders. The business has a strong reputation in the industry, supported by over 100 5-star Google reviews, and enjoys a healthy mix of repeat and new customers.
There is significant potential for growth in this niche market. The business could be scaled by increasing marketing efforts, such as expanding online presence, leveraging social media, and utilising targeted advertising to reach a broader audience of classic car owners.
There is also scope to hire additional staff to handle more orders, which could increase capacity and revenue. Given the nature of the service, the business is potentially relocatable, allowing it to operate from any suitable location with the necessary workshop facilities. Expansion of services to include other types of classic car components or related restoration services could also provide new revenue streams. With a solid foundation and strong industry contacts, the business is well-positioned for continued success under new ownership.
