BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
Food, Drink & Confectionary Retailer
Ref.AF129
Location Preston,Lancashire
Asking Price £85,000 plus stock at valuation
This company has been trading within the heart of the city centre for some 15 years and has built up a reputation for supplying customers with high quality branded food,drink and houshold products in loose quantities. Not only does this allow customers to buy the exact amount they require, be it large or small, at competetive prices but it also promotes a more eco friendly approach to retailing by reducing the amount of packaging used to sell goods.
The business stocks well over 500 lines including a full range of sugar free foods and confectionary that are all suitable for diabetics as well as gluten free products.
The shop has endless quantities of food from pet food to pick & mix sweets. It is this choice together with freshness and quality that ensures very impressive levels of repeat business.
Retail sales accounts for circa 95% of sales but the business also undertakes a small amount of wholesale business.
Expansion Potential
There is an outstanding opportunity to build on the existing business levels and customer base of this business. With a strong demand for this business's products, combined with the new capacity to increase turnover, a new owner contributing fresh ideas, will have every advantage of building on an excellent platform.
