Year Business was Established: 1968
   
Number of Employees: 8 full time  
   
Facilities / Terms of Lease: Existing Lease until February 2012: Owner holds the right to transfer business with the landlord’s prior approval.  
   
Potential Growth/Expansion: This company is well positioned for growth, perhaps by adding Saturday hours, expanding DRP or advertising through its own Web site. Open 8 a.m. – 5 p.m., weekdays with eight tenured full-time employees. Average tenure of the auto body technicians, mechanics and painters is 15 years. All of them would like to stay on with the new owner. Currently, two-thirds (67%) of revenue is bodywork; one-third (33%) is paintwork.  
   
Competition: Original family and owners since 1968 as a friendly, efficient auto body and paint shop in a prime SF residential and retail neighborhood with high visibility and traffic along busy MUNI bus and near cable car lines. This company has earned a 4.5 star rating out of 5.0 on Yelp.com for great, hands-on customer service. The other competitors in the area can’t match this company’s track record for service, longevity, and pipeline of business through DRP referrals.  
   
Owner willing to finance: Have secured pre-approved Buyer SBA Financing from two major banks.  
   
Owner willing to train: Seller will stay on for up to six months to ensure a smooth transition with the new owners. This is negotiable.
