He’d be lucky to be able to buy any bikes from any supplier this year as a new account tbh

trading as a successful workshop and he employs 3 FT guys on the spanners.
Keep this going, his biggest concern is sourcing components which are getting rare as hen's teeth, some simple componentry can be delayed as long as several months at the very minimum.
Selling bikes go up and down, spannering however are generally consistent.

A friend of mine wants to open a new bike shop. He's already got a premises thats trading as a successful workshop and he employs 3 FT guys on the spanners. In this new premises, he wants to move away from the fixing and focus more on selling product.
Whats your thoughts? What areas would you focus on? He has realistic ideas on what it could take year on year but currently is struggling to get any more accounts set up. He has no bike brands on board yet.
