Business History
Meridian Business Sales are delighted to bring to the market this exceptional opportunity to acquire a firmly established & hugely successful wholesale confectionery delivery round which currently covers the South Manchester area.
The business, which has been established for over 25 years and in the careful ownership of our client for the past three years, is only being brought to the market due to our clients pending and much deserved retirement.
The delivery round provides the wholesale sale of children's sweets with a price range from 1p up to £1 to a range of clients including newsagents & convenience stores throughout the South Manchester area. Current turnover is a very respectable £70,000 per annum with a gross profit margin of 45%. This is even more respectable considering the fact that our client only works at a pace to suit himself which involves a total of one days work per week only.
Products are mainly purchased from importers and some locally based wholesalers and only require a storage area equivalent to a domestic garage or small lock up unit meaning that overheads are at a minimum level.
The business is very profitable and has a huge amount of potential for growth which could be achieved by additional marketing, a full time working week and the provision of a website which could produce a more or less limitless new client roster and the opportunity to take orders from clients anywhere, where products could be packaged and sent or delivered.
Also available is an existing delivery van which can be purchased in addition to the business at a cost of £3,000 and additionally stock which is valued at approximately £6,500.
The current owner is also willing to provide his services for a period of four weeks after purchase to introduce all clients and to ensure a very easy transition of transfer to ensure the business gets off to the best possible start.
We consider early viewing of this truly unique opportunity to be absolutely essential as we consider that demand will be high.
