Homeware, Gifts, Jewellery, Clothing & Upcycled Furniture Business in Westcliff on Sea inSouth Essex

This is the perfect business for an ambitious buyer to re-configure and significantly increase the turnover taking advantage of the fantastic location in South Essex. Currently the seller concentrates on selling homeware products including cutlery and china, gift items, clothing and upcycled furniture and has built a good local reputation for customer service with many regular, returning customers re-visiting the shop over many years. We would expect a new dynamic owner to introduce new product lines, consider a concession business model working with other local artists and designers and increasing the current opening hours of 10am until 4pm and closed on Mondays. The business has been trading for a long period and the client is only reluctantly selling due to ill health.

Location wise the business enjoys a prominent position with fantastic passing trade both pedestrian and vehicular. We have produced a 360' virtual tour to provide buyers with a chance to take a look around the premises immediately but we would recommend an immediate appointment to visit in person to fully appreciate the huge potential on offer. The asking price has been set at a nominal level as an indication of the current owners requirement for a fast sale.
