Business History
Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this busy newsagent, which was established by our client in 1990 and is only now offered to the market due to our client's wish to retire. The premises are well-equipped to suit the trade with a spacious shelved serving area and large basement for storage. The business benefits from a high footfall and passing trade from the hotels and train station, along with much repeat custom from the surrounding area. Our client currently offers a variety of high quality general CTN lines, lottery and offers Payzone facility. The business currently trades 7 days a week, which generates a turnover in the region of £572,000 with a gross profit of 14%. We feel this could be further increased by extending the product range available and applying for an alcohol licence. The new owner could, if desired, establish a newspaper delivery service. This is an ideal opportunity to acquire an already busy newsagent with huge scope for further improvement. Early negotiations with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
