Business History
Meridian Business Sales are delighted to offer to the market this superb recently refurbished town centre bar which has been established in the town since Circa 1800 and has been in the capable hands of our client for the past 7 ½ years. The only reason this fantastic opportunity is being offered to the market is due to our clients desire to take a well deserved retirement and relocate to an international destination. Since our clients took ownership of the business they have spent a vast amount of money on refurbishing the business with no expense spared on the quality of fixtures and fittings and the highly impressive sound and lighting system which would provide any new prospective owner with a true ‘turnkey’ opportunity. Our clients advise us of an annual turnover of £450,000 with high gross profits which is derived from the sale of alcohol and an increasingly popular food side to the business. The business is well known as the main sports bar in the town and is the destination of choice for all televised sport lovers with our client providing the very latest in comfort and quality of viewing for those wishing to take a more relaxed approach to their sporting passions. The business has a fantastic reputation and enjoys many repeat and regular customers as well as tourists that are visiting the town on holiday.
