About the Business
A rare opportunity exists to acquire Cardwell Automotive & Towing Service, a highly regarded and long-established automotive workshop and towing operation located right on the Bruce Highway at Cardwell.
Operating since the early 1970s, this trusted local business has been under the current owner’s care since 1999 and owned by them since 2010. With retirement now on the horizon, the business is ready for a new owner to step in and enjoy the benefits of its outstanding reputation, broad service offering, and strategic location.
Cardwell Automotive & Towing Service provides a full range of mechanical repairs and servicing for passenger vehicles, 4WDs, light trucks and trailers, along with tyres, wheel alignments, diagnostics, auto air-conditioning services, battery changes, diesel injector and fuel pump testing and repairs, and approved vehicle inspections.
In addition to its strong local repeat customer base, the business benefits from a steady stream of transient travellers thanks to its prime highway frontage in Cardwell, a popular seasonal tourist location. With limited competition and the next mechanic approximately 20km away, the business holds a valuable position in the local market.
The workshop is exceptionally well set up and includes a 5-bay workshop with 4 hoists.
The premises also include a modern solid block residence built in 2013, making this an ideal lifestyle and business package. The home features 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, 2 living areas, an outdoor entertaining area with outdoor kitchen, ceiling fans and air-conditioning throughout, an 8m x 7m carport, separate 2-car garage, easy-care gardens, and a fully fenced house yard.
Currently operated by a husband and wife team with two mechanics, Cardwell Automotive & Towing Service has previously supported up to four mechanics, offering scope for expansion if desired. Importantly, the seller is committed to ensuring a smooth transition, with full handover support to be provided.
This is an outstanding opportunity for a mechanic, family, partnership or investor seeking a well-established regional automotive business with multiple income streams, strong community reputation, and the added bonus of a quality home on-site.
