Business History
Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this family run Post Office, which was established in 1970 and which has been in our clients' careful hands since 1979. The Post Office is only now offered to the market due to our clients' wish to retire. The business trades 6 days a week and generates a retail turnover in the region of £3,000 per annum with a gross profit of 60% and a Post Office salary of £26,000 per annum. Our clients' offer a range of stationery and greeting cards, along with Post Office services. The business has an excellent reputation, enjoying much repeat trade and word of mouth recommendations. The premises boast a spacious retail area, along with a large storeroom. We feel the turnover could be dramatically increased by utilising the storeroom as further retail space, to extend the range of products available. There is also planning permission in place to convert the premises into a 2-bedroom flat, if required. This is an ideal opportunity to acquire an already busy Post Office with huge scope for future growth. Early negotiations with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
