Photographic Printing and Gifts Shop For Sale, Chard, Somerset
About Us
We are a family-owned independent business established in 1990, offering a wide range of photographic services and personalised products.
Our Services
· Digital printing
· Canvas and poster printing
· Digital passport and ID photos
· Frames, albums, and photo gifts
Gifts and Popular Products
Around four years ago, we introduced a larger gift range, which has proved very popular and continues to grow.
Our Equipment
All photo printing is carried out on a Fuji DE100 XD machine, installed in July 2025. We also have two Fuji A10 kiosks for easy customer ordering. For larger items such as posters and canvas prints, we use an Epson SC-P6000 connected to a dedicated PC.
We are located in the centre of town with convenient on-street parking. Over the years, we have built a strong local customer base as well as regular trade from surrounding areas including Axminster, Honiton, Crewkerne, Taunton, and Yeovil, largely through word-of-mouth and personal recommendations.
Business Sale and Staffing
The business is offered for sale as a going concern, including staff. I currently employ one part-time team member who has worked for since 2004, when I took the business over, and for my father before that.
She is highly reliable and is confident managing the shop in my absence.
Having traded for 36 years, the business still offers excellent scope for growth through fresh ideas and additional services.
