I am now looking to sell my Taxi business due to personal circumstances, I have only owned it for 6 months and would welcome any advise about where to advertise it, Its an excellent little business and as mentioned in previous post has an excellent regular customer base and school contracts, Nice office,

I dont really want to sell it but unfortunately it will have to go a.s.a.p

Thanks

Where was it advertised when you bought it? Try there. If you have only owned the business for 6 months you may have a problem convincing someone that it is worth buying though.

It was advertised in the local paper and by word of mouth, Its located just outside chester in flintshire, I agree with your comments about its worth, Without giving all the details it would make someone over £25k a year as it is, But there is a lot more work available with more drivers, Just got one new one last week which has helped

Why not try keeping it and put a manager in it.
