Default business for sale

Hi. My lavandaria is currently up for sale if anyone is interested in buying a business in Mexico. We are profitable and viable and in a great location in the center of town. Selling has nothing to do with the business - or any problems with the business- simply my partner needs to return to Venezuela for family reasons and I do not wish to run the business myself.


We have new machines. Contracts with local companies that more than cover our rent and expenses. A tremendous walk-in business too. We have good employees who have been with us for 5 years now. All taxes, fees, permits etc are up to date.


I will keep it brief. You can PM me if you are interested. But simply, it's a family reason for selling....nothing bad....nothing more.


Thanks- Marissa

A lavanderia is a laundromat.

Hey, Cheri & Tony, weren't you guys saying you were interested in a new business opportunity? This could be it! Wouldn't want you to get bored.

Lavenderias are like ATM machines, in these parts. Wish I had some money to invest.

Yes, but unlike ATM's not all lavandarias give back money! Mine does. (well, at least to the owners)

wish you had some money to invest also!

My FIL made his fortune in the laundramat business. It helps if you can fix the machines yourself.

Would love too, but we have figured out it's just not the right time in our life to be uprooting and moving to Mexico. Thanks for the info. With the details i know you will sell it soon. Best of luck to you guys.
Jeff

Hi. Thanks for all the interest in the business.

Right now it is under contract. If for some reason it does not sell, I will let those interested know.

thanks for all the wonderful responses!

and to John and LIbby for letting me post!
