Direct Auto Valet Irish Franchise Business Opportunity For Sale

Business description

Over the last 20 years Autovaletdirect has built up a reputation for offering unrivalled first class professional mobile car valeting services, and now we are ready to expand the Autovaletdirect brand throughout Ireland.

The business opportunity

Car ownership in Ireland is predicted to be in excess of 3 million by 2020 which would result in a level of car ownership per 1000 population that was greater then the USA! We also believe the Mobile Car Valeting market is and will continue to be under serviced, which in turn creates a great opportunity for our professional valeting mobile service.

Our franchisees offer a wide range of products, which both protect the vehicle's paintwork and upholstery and keep it looking new. Franchisees are also trained and equipped to correct minor paintwork problems such as scratches and colour fading etc. and they have specialist materials to enable them to remove most internal stains and odours, in fact we can just about deal with any automotive cleaning problem.

Benefits of buying an Autovaletdirect franchise

Autovaletdirect are about substance rather than ‘froth’ and glossy brochures. Unlike some franchisors we are not trying to sell you a franchise, on the contrary we have a recruitment process that helps us both judge the value and benefits that we can each bring to an established and successful Autovaletdirect franchise. We will provide you with all the information and details you need to decide if this is the opportunity that appeals to you and is affordable. We are an independently owned franchise operation with over 25 years experience in the car valeting marketplace, and a member of The British Franchise Association.

The unique vehicle we use to provide the service is a purpose-built mobile vehicle valeting unit fitted in Kent by our specialist fabricators and coachbuilders, robustly constructed and specifically designed to our specification. All vehicles are fitted with onboard water, self sufficient RCD protected electrical supply, chip & pin credit Card Terminal and touch screen Traffic Master Smartnav with Trackstar GPS stolen vehicle tracking. Hot water and bespoke valet bay for poor weather conditions are available at an extra cost. Every aspect of the business is tried and tested, reflecting the substantial depth of practical experience and expertise gained over many years.

As an Autovaletdirect franchisee you will also benefit directly from exclusive arrangements that we have in place with National and International companies.

Our Standard set-up is available from €13,700 (£10,051.50 + VAT). Finance is available through Natwest, HSBC, Lloyds TSB and Royal Bank of Scotland (subject to status) who currently hold up to date profiles on the Autovaletdirect Franchise

Deferred start-up option

We appreciate that the current economic situation may prevent many, through no fault of their own, getting a loan to fund the franchise. Autovaletdirect has now designed a low start-up option where in effect, we ‘loan’ a proportion of the cost to you which can be spread over an agreed period of up to 60 months.

The fully comprehensive start-up package is now available at just €10,900 (£7,997.18 + VAT), which now includes full vehicle fitting.
