Auto Body Shop – 43% Gross Margin, Predictable Workflow

This established auto body shop operates with a disciplined, booth-driven production model, prioritizing reliable turnaround times and consistent margins over volume chasing. The business operates from a 13,000 sq. ft. facility and is equipped with three dedicated booths supporting paint, heat, and collision repair. Capacity is intentionally governed by booth availability and floor space, creating a predictable workflow and dependable service delivery. Annual sales are approximately $400,000, with parts and labor integrated directly into pricing, producing a consistent 43% gross profit margin. This margin profile reflects controlled throughput, experienced 10+ year technicians, and repeat referral work rather than aggressive discounting or overextension. The shop benefits from an established base of local insurance agencies and car dealerships, providing a steady floor of inbound work that can be built upon by a more growth-focused owner. The current owner operates this business as an adjacent operation alongside other ventures, maintaining oversight while relying on staff to execute day-to-day work. A new owner should view the business similarly: as a focused, process-driven operation that rewards operational discipline and selective growth. This opportunity is well-suited for: Existing auto repair, mechanical, or specialty shops seeking an add-on body operation Detailing, wrap, PPF, or customization businesses looking to verticalize collision and paint work Towing companies seeking downstream repair capture Dealership service operators expanding in-house reconditioning and body work First-time entrepreneurs with automotive experience looking for a manageable, margin-stable entry point With strong margins, reliable referral sources, and defined capacity, this business offers a solid foundation for an owner who values control, consistency, and incremental optimization rather than scale-at-all-costs growth. Additional automotive-related business opportunities operate at the same location, creating potential for expanded revenue streams and earnings for the right buyer.
