Tyre And Exhaust Group With Improving Margins In Plymouth

About this business
Based in Plymouth since 2013, this tyre and exhaust business employs 101 and leases its premises on an industrial estate. It fits tyres and exhausts and handles brakes, batteries and servicing for private drivers and business fleets. Turnover has eased slightly from £12.95m to £12.4m, but EBITDA has risen every year, from £1.22m to £1.98m, taking the margin to about 16%. That shift points to better buying and pricing rather than more volume. Whoever buys it inherits a business already earning a strong margin, with the lease and staff in place.
Key investment highlights
- EBITDA up 62% since 2021
- Margin of about 16%
- Team of 101
- Trading since 2013
