Buying a Car Repair Shop in Germany – Market & Opportunities

Car repair shops offer a stable, largely recession-resistant business: vehicles need maintenance and repair regardless of the economic situation. For buyers, an existing workshop is attractive because fitted workstations, diagnostic and lifting equipment, a loyal client base and skilled staff already exist. Regular customers with recurring service appointments are a valuable foundation.

Value drivers are utilisation, the share of regular customers, skilled staff, and the condition of the workshop equipment. An independent workshop and a franchised/branded workshop each have their own opportunities. On Deal One you will find car repair shops from all over Germany – select your state below.

Frequently Asked Questions: Buying a Auto Repair Shop

What does a car repair shop cost to buy?

Valuation is usually via an earnings multiple plus the current value of lifts, diagnostic and workshop equipment. Utilisation, the share of regular customers and location determine the value.

Do I need a master craftsman qualification?

Independent operation of a car repair shop generally requires a master craftsman qualification or a registered site manager with that qualification. An employed master can take on this role.

How do I secure customers and staff?

Retaining the trained team and a gradual transition, in which regular customers continue to be served personally, are decisive for the business to continue successfully.
