Auto Parts Store Business Plan


Southeast Racing Parts (SRP) is a small, North Carolina-based automobile racing parts brick and mortar and mail order organization. SRP will continue to be small to give customers unparalleled attention. Southeast Racing Parts becomes the leading destination for novice racing parts and entry-level parts.

The Market

Southeast Racing Parts has an exciting opportunity to participate in a growing market. In the USA, motorsports have seen a rapid growth over the past decade. It is now the fastest-growing sport in the USA. The market is worth approximately $1.5 billion annually. Recent research shows that 385,000 people have participated in organized motorsport events. This includes more people who “souped” up their cars but still haven’t compete in organized events. Motorsports coverage on TV has increased significantly, helping to drive growth. SRP has chosen the Carolinas as their preferred location due to its record population growth. It has increased 25% in the last 10 years.

Organization

Southeast Racing Parts was founded on the belief that satisfied customers are essential to the financial health and success of an organization. SRP will do everything possible to make sure that every customer’s expectations are met in all transactions. Southeast Racing Parts is committed to being a part of the local racing scene, through sponsorship and participation.

Products and Services Delivery

SRP will operate both as a brick and mortar business serving the local community, as well as offering a catalog with mail order service. The four-color edition will be the standard. All subsequent editions of the catalog will have to be analyzed in order to determine whether it is cost effective. SRP offers engine and chassis replacements for a wide range cars. Safety equipment and set-up equipment will also be available. In addition to the most popular brands, there will be a wide variety of generic labels parts. SRP will provide services such as coil rating and scaling for race cars.

Financials

Southeast Racing Parts expects to be profitable beginning in month 1. Margins are forecasted to be respectable. Year one sales will be remarkable with a steady increase rate for the first 5 years.

Southeast Racing Parts is a promising opportunity. This company combines a customer-centric business model with thriving industry. Motorsports is becoming increasingly popular in the United States with more and more people becoming active participants. Even for those who are not true participants, it is now “cool” to have your car “tweaked out” even just for aesthetics. An investment in Southeast Racing Parts is a high growth, reasonable risk opportunity.
