Business History
Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this thriving carpet and flooring retailer, which was established by our client in 1990 and which is only now being placed on the market due to our clients' wish for a career change. The business trades 7 days a week and generates a turnover in the region of £800,000 per annum with a gross profit of 22% (not including bed sales). The majority of the turnover is generated from domestic customers. The business covers the whole of the north west and is an established retailer of a range of well-known brands, including Amtico, Karndean, Wilton, Brintons, Ulster, Axminster and Pergo. Our client also offers an installation service and we are advised that all the fitters are National Institute of Carpet and Floor Layers accredited. We feel the turnover could be further increased by embarking on a modest marketing campaign and establishing commercial contracts. The business has a loyal customer base and is renowned for providing major brands at competitive prices. There is a website in place advertising the business and services provided, which we feel would benefit from online ordering facilities. The premises are well-equipped to suit the trade and boast numerous display rooms. The property has been well-maintained and finished to a high standard. We have been advised that there are 2 vehicles included in the sale. Early negotiations with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
