Introduction
Many Indians overlook car servicing as a viable business abroad. But if you already know how to perform basic maintenance tasks like oil changes or tyre replacements, you may be sitting on a low-cost, high-potential opportunity to start your own business in Canada. Car servicing is a widely demanded, locally trusted industry in Canadian suburbs, and the good news is it doesn’t take millions to get started.
Even with a basic garage setup, your monthly expense can be as low as $1500 including rent and utilities. Compare this with the cost of running a business in metro cities like Delhi or Mumbai, and you’ll see why many skilled workers choose to relocate.
All profits go to your business, not into rent or uncertain markets
In Canada, especially in smaller towns and suburban areas, overheads are predictable and client demand is consistent. That means every additional car you service adds to your bottom line. Whether you operate alone or eventually grow to a 2-3 person team, the model is simple: steady monthly income, local demand, and full ownership of operations.
Unlike working a job, where your earnings are capped, running your own shop gives you flexibility and long-term rewards. Even better, your business can be structured to meet immigration criteria, allowing you to secure your PR in the process.
