The Business
This is a very well established concern which enjoys all the considerable commercial advantages of a very prominent trading position on the busy road of Deardengate in Haslingden.
Operating from substantial, secure and well fitted parade premises, the business has become an important focal point of the community as being the only post office in the area, in the course of many years highly successful trading by conducting a useful and popular retail operation with a range of stock such as confectionary, fancy goods, newspapers etc.
This business would naturally furnish any enthusiastic purchaser with vast scope for continued growth, not least with regard to considerable further expansion of the retail products and services currently provided and to operating hugely extended retail hours particularly at weekends in order to improve upon the already high levels of turnover. Additionally, there is scope for growth in the layout of the store and the variety of stock provided.
Haslingden Post Office is licensed to have a full range of traditional Post Office services for local residents including currency exchange including Euros on demand, dispensing passport applications, renewing car tax etc.
There is much room for expansion in this business as it could easily be transformed into a convenience store. Also, the use of the lottery and tobacco and alcohol sales would make a huge increase in profit if included in the trade.
Financial Information
Current average yearly retail takings in the region of £70,000 with good profits and scope to increase.
