This Spar convenience store occupies substantial corner premises on a busy main road approximately half a mile from the centre of Carlisle in Cumbria. The store is surrounded by complementary shops and businesses and benefits from a high footfall and much passing traffic. There is ample on-street parking in the vicinity. The business is surrounded by a good mixture of residential and industrial areas and boasts easy access with the A6 less than a mile away and the M6 motorway less than 3 miles away. Carlisle is located between the Lake District and the Scottish border.
Business History
Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this popular Spar convenience store, which was established in 1968 and which has been in our client's careful hands since 1999. The business is only now being placed on the market due to our client's wish to retire. The store is currently run at a pace to suit our client and generates a turnover in the region of £500,000 per annum with a gross profit of 22%, derived from the sale of convenience lines, alcohol sales, newspapers and magazines as well as Lottery and PayPoint. The business boasts a spacious retail sales area and is fitted to a high standard throughout. A new owner could increase turnover by perhaps, extending the range of products offered and expanding the wines and spirits section. We feel this is an ideal opportunity, perhaps for a family or couple, to acquire a thriving and superbly located convenience store. Early discussions with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
