The business has a prime trading position in a busy parade of shops and enjoys a high footfall with much passing trade.

The area is well served by public transport with a number of bus stops and a railway station within easy walking distance. The premises are easily accessed via the A-road network and the M90 motorway is 17 miles away. Cupar is a desirable place in which to live and work and is also home to a number of attractions including the Scottish Deer Centre and the Hill of Tarvit.

Business History
Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this unique café and ceramic studio franchise business, which was established in 2007 and which has been in our clients' careful hand since 2009. The café is only now being offered to the market due to our clients' family commitments. The business trades 7 days a week and generates a turnover in the region of £140,000 per annum with a gross profit of 34%. The Ceramic Experience offers an extensive range of fresh home baked food and hot and cold beverages, along with ceramic painting and manufacturing. The café hosts a range of events and functions, such as birthdays, corporate events and hen parties. The premises have been fitted by the franchise with approximately £90,000 worth of equipment. The business is part of the Ceramic Experience franchise, currently with 7 outlets, and benefits from the well-known brand image. The café has a loyal customer base and enjoys much repeat trade and word of mouth recommendations. There is a comprehensive website in place advertising the franchise and services provided. We feel the turnover could be further increased by embarking on a modest marketing campaign and perhaps establishing a loyalty scheme. The premises boast a spacious unused retail area and 2 offices to the first floor, which we feel could be let out to increase the turnover. This is an ideal opportunity to acquire an already busy café and ceramic studio business in such a desirable location with huge scope for future growth. Early negotiations with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
