Ready store with minimal investment
You don’t need to create an online store from scratch, order design and layout separately, buy an “engine” for work, etc. Spend money on buying or renting a server, renting spare parts catalogs and connecting additional options. You do not need to hire a programmer to maintain and support the system. By becoming a partner, you can start selling spare parts within an hour after signing the contract.
Unlike other network companies, we do not adhere to a policy of centralized management of franchise buyers. We do not require a percentage of your sales and do not set certain requirements for the partner. When opening a new store, you have the right to independently select suppliers, independently set prices and make decisions. Our specialists will help with advice on the development and organization of your business, but the last word will always remain with you.
Our franchise cost is low. The lump sum fee will only cover our actual costs for opening your store. It is worth noting that after opening there is a grace period of work during which there are no deductions to us. It will allow you to understand whether our business fits your plans. In the future, you will be required to pay a nominal monthly fee. Thus, we are not aimed at quickly receiving money for the very fact of partnership, but we count on mutually beneficial relationships for many years.

There are several ways to start your own auto parts business and with different starting capital. Naturally, opening your own business is simply not realistic. The law of the market is to invest first, then receive.
- How to start a business selling auto parts
- What kind of premises do you need for an auto parts store?
- Store equipment and personnel
- How much can you earn from an auto parts store?
- What is more profitable to sell in your auto shop?
- What documents are needed to open and operate a car shop?
- Do you need a permit to open a car shop?
- Which OKVED to choose
- Which tax regime to choose to open an auto shop?
How to start a business selling auto parts
If the starting capital is minimal, then you can open an online store and sell auto parts for sale. Here you will have to invest a lot of effort and effort to find a good supplier who will work under such conditions. However, you will receive significant savings by purchasing goods for sale.
What will you choose: an auto parts store or e-commerce?
It is advisable that the goods for sale be given in bulk. There are quite a few companies operating under this scheme in large cities. And if they include a new partner in their advertising campaign, this will be an additional plus for the promotion of the new company. You can enter into cooperation agreements with several companies at once.
What kind of premises do you need for an auto parts store?
If the idea is not your option, then first you need to find a premises that can be equipped as a store, register as an individual entrepreneur and draw up the necessary documents for the right to sell. When selecting premises, you need to consider the following factors:
- convenient access for cars;
- equipped parking, or a place to create it;
- visibility of the store from passing highways;
- An additional advantage for the store will be its location close to traffic police posts and garage cooperatives.
Ideally, it is better to choose a place for your auto parts store at the car market. You can buy the premises, rent them, or, for example, stand on the market among other sellers. But again, there are also disadvantages here - a lot of competition, despite the fact that the client is all suitable. The area of the premises where the retail outlet will be located will be 60 m2. Among which, 45 m2 will be occupied by display cases and shelving, and 15 m2 will remain for office space.
Showcases for auto parts stores.
Store equipment and personnel
The next step will be to purchase the necessary equipment and recruit staff. An auto parts store will need:
How much can you earn from an auto parts store?
As a result of modest calculations, we obtain the following indicators of expenses and income. Among them, one-time expenses will go towards equipment and the purchase of goods. The rest are considered monthly.
Some novice sellers believe that the best option is to open an online store. It operates 24 hours a day and does not require premises, equipment or a large staff. The only question is how to name the auto parts store so that it is easy to remember and has a simple Internet address.
What is more profitable to sell in your auto shop?
It is best to plan a wider range of auto products. Here you can offer visitors components, some units, consumables that are always in demand and even. And of course, don’t forget about accessories - they are always in demand, as they can be an excellent gift for a holiday.
Note that today the trade in auto parts is divided into three segments:
- spare parts for domestic cars;
- for European and American cars;
- for Japanese cars.
Having decided on the direction of work and the group of potential clients, you can order a trial batch of goods and open your own business. The received product must be shown on the pages of the online store.
Thus, it is worth immediately deciding on the choice and strategy for trading auto parts. It’s up to you to decide how the sale will take place: through a retail outlet or an online store. I must say that today the question of how to open your own online auto parts store is solved very easily and simply, but finding a supplier is a task that must be solved first.
For the presented calculation of an online auto parts store, the most significant risk will be a shortage of auto parts. Several concluded agreements will significantly reduce this risk. They will also minimize delivery times and the final cost of goods in the online store.
What documents are needed to open and operate a car shop?
Any direction of commercial activity begins with the choice of an organizational and legal form for the future business and subsequent registration with government agencies. It is quite enough for running an auto parts store. This allows you to save money on registration, an individual entrepreneur can use cash financial resources, and there are no strict requirements for organizing accounting.
In addition to individual entrepreneur papers and taxpayer documents, the auto parts store must have:
- A lease agreement for premises or certificates confirming ownership of it.
- Documents from representatives of the fire inspection and Rospotrebnadzor, which indicate that you comply with sanitary rules and fire safety standards.
- Papers confirming the registration of the cash register with the Federal Tax Service, its technical passport, service agreement, registration card and cashier's journal.
- Documents required by consumer protection legislation (equipped buyer's corner).
- Local government permits.
- Certificates and invoices for the entire range of products sold.
Do you need a permit to open a car shop?
In some cases, local authorities may adjust the presented list, but Russian legislation does not provide for any special permits or licenses for the sale of auto parts.
Which OKVED to choose
When preparing documents for registering your future business, be sure to indicate the code of the selected type of activity. For retail trade in auto parts - this is OKVED 45.32.
Which tax regime to choose to open an auto shop?
The next important point is the taxation regime. In this matter, most business entities are advised to choose the simplified tax system (simplified system), with a tax liability of 6% of the store’s monthly cash register or 15% of profit before taxes.
The main advantages of the presented regime are savings (less is paid to the treasury than when working on a general basis), and also in the fact that even a person without relevant experience and education can cope with reports to the Federal Tax Service.
Any large business is, first of all, a smart investment. We advise get free training for investments in the most interesting area of business for you!

If you want to start a profitable and stable business, we recommend that you open an auto parts store. Spare parts are always needed - the number of cars in Russia is growing, but the quality of roads is constantly falling. With the right approach to business, you can quickly recoup all your investments and even create an entire chain of stores.
Introduction
Despite the outbreak of the crisis, there are no fewer cars on the roads. Few people have switched to public transport - people continue to drive private cars as before. Some employees have even increased the number of trips - more meetings and consultations need to be held in order to maintain the required level of product sales.
Even those who were directly affected by the crisis do not put their car on hold - they simply reduce the number of trips. But if something happens to the car, they will definitely repair it. And for repairs you always need spare parts. Let's figure out why start an auto parts business and what is needed for this.
How to start
First of all, study your competitors. There are probably stores in your locality that sell spare parts. Visit them, consider the range of products and prices, opening hours and location. Think about ways to entice local service stations and car repair shops to purchase spare parts from you. Perhaps you can offer them preferential prices or short delivery times.
An auto parts store is a fairly profitable and interesting business. Initially, you will not have many customers - people, out of habit, will go to buy spare parts in trusted stores. But if you trade wisely, sell only high-quality spare parts and organize various promotions, you will quickly build up a customer base. And one more thing - people always buy spare parts. There will be no such principle as in an electronics store, when a person makes one purchase every 2-3 years. The car is constantly in need of spare parts.
Types of spare parts stores
Stores selling spare parts are divided into two broad types:
- Online stores.
- Classic stores.
Classic stores are also divided into several types. Some sell spare parts exclusively to order, others have their own warehouse and showcase, while others sell only parts for certain types of cars.
For a small spare parts store, it is usually enough to register a regular individual entrepreneur. This will allow you to save on taxes and quickly submit reports without unnecessary headaches. If you want to open a large store, enter into contracts for the supply of spare parts to well-known service stations, etc., then it is better to choose an LLC. This will allow you to get more clients, but will increase your tax rate.
Your store should have everything from oils to tires
Premises requirements
Any costs of starting a business can be divided into two types:
- Permanent (salaries, taxes, rent, purchase of goods, repairs).
- One-time (purchase of premises, equipment, registration costs and furniture).
One of the main expense items will be the building for your store. If you plan to open a full-fledged establishment, then you need to find a room with a size of 50 m2 (preferably at least 80 square meters), which should be divided into a warehouse, a sales area and a staff room. It is best if the premises are located near a car wash or car service center, near garage cooperatives, near a major highway or in residential areas. The building must have water supply, sewerage, electricity, ventilation and a fire alarm system. The best option would be a room with two entrances: customers will come through the main one, and goods will be delivered through the back one. There should be at least minimal parking in front of the building itself. For equipment, you will need durable shelving, display cases and racks.
For accounting you will need a computer with appropriate software, internet, telephone and furniture.
Online store
An online store allows you to organize a business with minimal investment. To do this, you only need an office (you can even work from an apartment). You will save on:
- For rent.
- Staff.
- Utilities.
Many novice businessmen open an online store and resell spare parts, buying them in classic stores. This is the wrong approach and will not bring you serious profits. It is still better to purchase the most popular goods yourself and send them immediately after placing the order, rather than running around the city looking for the right part.
An online store can significantly expand your customer list
Some warehouses allow you not to buy goods, but to take them for sale. This is a great option for online stores.
let's consider how to open an auto parts store from scratch and take goods for sale without investing money in it.
You will need a website, which you can order from freelancers or create yourself using numerous free engines. Then you will need to promote it in search engines for given key queries. After this, you will have real visitors who will place orders, and you will send them goods. To take it for sale, you need to agree with suppliers . Usually they give the goods for sale on the condition that a certain amount is returned to them monthly. If you go for it, you can save a lot on your investment.
But usually an online store is not opened as a separate business, but as an addition to an existing one. When you have a functioning spare parts store, you will open your website in order to attract a large number of customers.
Staff and assortment
You will need:
- Shop assistant.
- Administrator-accountant.
- Loader-cleaner.
At the initial stages, you can play the role of administrator and accountant. In this case, you only need a seller, who can also become a loader. But in the future it is necessary to hire people for this work.
To select an assortment, you need to decide what exactly you will sell. Perhaps you will focus on domestic cars. Or for freight. Or for some specific brands. You should always have all spare parts and consumables available:
- Motor oils and other technical fluids.
- Ball joints, gaskets, various rubber bands, etc.
- Optics.
- Tires, wheels.
- Glass.
- Spare parts for chassis repairs (shock absorbers, springs, struts, etc.).
- Candles, screws, wipers, pumps, first aid kits, etc.
In order to successfully fight competitors, it is necessary to set prices 5-10 percent lower by organizing high-quality delivery of spare parts to order. Your assortment should include both original spare parts and “analogues” - people often buy cheaper goods.
A separate building will allow you to open an additional business - a car wash or tire service
Suppliers
Where to find suppliers? On the Internet, in newspapers, in the media. You need to choose several high-quality sellers who will not only offer the required range, but will also guarantee that delivery times are met. If you constantly miss deadlines, the number of clients will drop sharply.
Advertising
You can start promoting your store even before it opens. Launch an advertising campaign with flyers, banners, and banners. Focus on a good assortment, affordable prices, discounts, and minimum delivery times. Conduct various promotions and competitions, make yourself a good sign, create groups on social networks and topics on local forums. Offer a discount to regular customers, make small discounts for pensioners and students - you need to focus on regular customers.
Profitability
In this article we will give only an example auto parts store business plan , since everything depends greatly on location and many other factors. To open a standard store with an area of 80 m2, equip it and fill it with goods, you will need about 2 million rubles. The profit for the year with the right approach will be at least 1.4 million rubles, that is, the store will pay for itself in about 15 months and after that will begin to bring you additional profit.
In order to increase income, you can organize a car wash or service station near the car shop. This business has excellent prospects for development, and the profit will be constant and high!
