Jerry’s Garage | Application Preview
Jerry's Garage is seeking government grants primarily to purchase a larger property of 0.82 acres that includes a 6,200 square foot building. This facility was formerly an auto repair shop, equipped with lifts and various tools, and has been in operation for around 40 years.
The business plan focuses on expanding operations by hiring at least two additional employees, with the potential for further growth. The absence of a Quick Lube service in the community presents a significant opportunity, as residents currently travel 25 miles for such services. Establishing this convenience locally could save community members both time and money.
Jerry emphasizes his commitment to customer service, treating every vehicle as if it belongs to a loved one. With 28 years of experience, he has gained a reputation for integrity and quality work, prioritizing customer satisfaction over disparaging competitors. His strong work ethic is evident, as he often works six to seven days a week. This dedication, along with the identified community need for automotive services, strengthens the case for funding approval.

Business Plan
One of the most important things to me is to add at least 2 more employees and possibly more later, t be o help the business and our community grow. The opportunity I know is there to grow and expand the abilities of Jerry’s Garage. One thing in our community is there is not a Quick Lube for vehicles. Most people have to drive 25 miles for that convenience and if it were here in our community we could save them money in gas and fuel. The top qualifier for me I feel is that I take Pride, responsibility and respect for my customers and their vehicles. One of the things in my 28 years experience I have learned the if you treat everyone as if you are working on your moms car they will be happy with your work, and I truly do that. Thank you.

Self Identified Competition
I only have “ hear say” about my competitors and what my customers say. I’am not one to bad mouth other shops or business’s in my area because I try to fix what ever it is a customer comes in complaining about. My reputation is what I Live by everyday! I believe that everyone should have a chance not just me. I’ve worked very hard to have my name be what it is today in my industry. I believe my work ethic would speak for itself with working 6 to 7 days a week at times
