Well Established Local Post Office and Convenience Store Ref 1710
Central Business Sales are delighted to offer to the market a very rare opportunity to purchase a well established, profitable post office and convenience store. The post office has been trading in the same location for over 50 years and has been successfully run by the present owner for the last 8 years. It is only now being sold as the current owner wishes to retire. Popular with local residents, the business also benefits from having the local school just yards away.
The post office and convenience store offer a full range of services and goods. The post office is attracts a high daily footfall, which in turn makes the convenience store busy. The shop sells confectionery, newspapers, magazines, groceries, frozen food and tobacco. There is the potential to sell alcohol if a new owner wishes to gain the appropriate licences.
The shop is approximately 55m² with a post office and serving counter to the front. There is an open plan display area with a stock room to the rear. Free parking is available directly outside the shop.
The business is being offered on a leasehold basis with a brand new 10 year lease available. Rent is £165 per week and 100% rates relief applies under the Small Business Bonus Scheme. There is a good post office salary and good profits from the store - accounts will be made available after viewing.
