A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial Crown Estates Leasehold Site, ideally suited for Mussel Farming. The site has previously been used for farming Mussels with approval for 20 x 200 metre lines, giving an output of circa 600 - 800 tonnes. The site has scope to expand the output by up to 300%.
Key Opportunities:
The plot has previously held approval for 20 x 200 metre lines (4,000 metres total), giving a potential output of 600-800 tonnes, though the on-site capacity is circa 12,000 metres of line, with an output of circa 1,800-2,400 tonnes. The Mussels take between 24 and 30 months to mature from Mussel Spat and the estimated wholesale price of mature Mussels in 2010 is £2,200 per tonne, giving a potential return on investment of between £4 - £5 million per cycle.
Premises:
The Site is held on a Crown Estates, 10 year renewable lease.
Financial Information:
All financial discussions will take place directly between the Vendor and all interested parties under the auspices of Turner Butler.
The Farm isn’t operational and doesn’t currently generate any revenue due to the ill health of the current owner.
Reason for Sale:
The business is for sale only due to the present owners’ ill health and that is reflected in the current turnover.
Support and Training
The current owner would be more than happy to give advice and guidance to the new owner. | | | | | | FOR SALE | | | | | SELLER: | TURNER BUTLER | | CONTACT: | 01895 25 6000 | | REFERENCE: | EI005 / RightBiz | | ENQUIRIES: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
