The store also has a Post Office counter which provides an advised £12,000 per annum salary. The business has always enjoyed excellent levels of repeat trade with many of the regular customers visiting for many years.
The business also sees a healthy supply of new customers derived from good word of mouth recommendations and from the highly visible trading location set on a main through road.
