BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
Coach and Mini Bus Hire Company

Ref.GP166
Location Lancashire
Asking Price £ 300,000

This well established and highly succesful business was set up the the current owner some 15 years ago and in that time has steadily grown to become a highly respected and reliable provider of good quality coaches and mini buses to the local community.

The company runs a fleet comprising two 35 seater coaches and 5 mini buse (both 14 seater and 17 seater vehciles). All vehicles are signwritten and in an excellent state of repair. All are fitted with the necessary tacogrpahs and fully calibrated.

The company is in an enviable position as it holds several long term solid contracts with local councils and schools, some of which have in excess of 2 years to run ensuring ongoing business and profitability to a new owner. The company also services the private market and occassionally does sub contract work for other coach companies in the area who it has a very good working relationships with.

As well as their daily contract work, which accounts for some 75% of turnover the business also operates a large number of private hire trips for weddings, airport runs, sports events and coastal trips.

Expansion Potential
This is an excellent opportunity to build on the solid foundations that have been laid down by the owner. This business has grown to date by providing superb levels of service in terms of price, reliability, comfort and safety. The business is constantly getting invitations to tender for new work(public and private sector) but has chosen not to pursue these at present due to the vendors other business commitments. The demand is there. A new owner could significantly increase the operations and profitability of this business should they so require.
