There's a business that made more millionaires in the Midwest than tech startups and you've probably never even thought about it. It's auto parts manufacturing and the margins will shock you. Every car on the road, every Ford, every Toyota, every Tesla is basically a rolling collection of 30,000 parts. Brackets, brake pads, sensors, gaskets. Someone has to make all of that And that someone is quietly getting rich. Here's how the money works. A small to mid-size auto parts manufacturer, think 20 to 100 employees, can bring in anywhere from $5 million to $50 million a year in revenue. Net margins usually sit between 8% and 15%. So on a $10 million shop, you're looking at $800,000 to $1.5 million in owner years, a facility. We're talking $500,000 to a few million just to get started. And you're at the mercy of raw material prices, steel, aluminum, rubber that swing constantly. Miss a shipment deadline to a major automaker and you can get dropped and blacklisted fast. Here's the part investors love. These businesses sell for four to seven times EBITDA. So build a shop doing $1.5 million in profit. Run it clean for 10 years and you could sell it for $6.10 million. Private equity is and that's exactly why there's so little competition. If you want to see the actual startup costs broken down step by step, hit follow so you don't miss it. And drop a comment with the next boring business you want me to break down. I'm reading every single one and picking the next video from the comments.
