Business Description
This long established and highly regarded ISO9001 (quality) ISO18000 (health and safety) and ISO14000 (environmental) accredited, family-run limited company is currently primarily equipped to the highest industry specifications to undertake Class IV, V & VII MOT work for most petrol and diesel private, light commercial, heavy goods, passenger service vehicles and motorcycle marques.
The workshop also undertakes a full range of associated professional general auto mechanical repairs, maintenance, diagnostic, tyre, clutch, exhaust, wheel alignment and engine management solutions, in addition to acting as a valued service agent for market leading Terraclean eco friendly engine cleaning systems.
"A V S Limited" provides its services for a longstanding and still expanding repeat and referral private and trade account client base drawn from throughout a wide surrounding catchment area and operates from premises of a size which would naturally furnish any enthusiastic purchaser with considerable scope for continued growth, not least with regard to possible expansion into other areas of the highly diverse motor services and retail market and to operating weekend hours in order to exploit the full potential capacity of its facilities.
The business would also benefit by adopting a more vigorous marketing policy of its excellent existing services, particularly with reference to further development of its web and social media presence, in order to improve upon the already high levels of turnover it has achieved since being established in its present form in 1997 by the current husband and wife directors, with the aid of an experienced and motivated team of six full-time assistants who would be an asset to any purchaser, and we would strongly urge any genuine interested parties to pursue the earliest possible enquiries.
