Seize a rare opportunity to acquire one of Taunton's most established and respected barbershops. Trading successfully for seven years, this profitable, turnkey business boasts a loyal customer base, a skilled team, and an excellent reputation within the local community.
The barbershop has been fitted and furnished to a high standard, featuring five classic barber chairs and a comfortable waiting area. Its distinctive, characterful interior enhances the customer experience, making it a welcoming space for clients to enjoy. The business currently operates with six full and part-time staff, who work on a commission basis, allowing for smooth operations with minimal owner involvement.
Some of its key strengths include an exceptionally low monthly rent of just £700—accounting for less than 5% of gross turnover—an active customer database of 2,300 clients, and an established online booking system. This ready-made platform facilitates marketing, promotions, and future growth. The barbershop also benefits from a complete, recognised brand, which includes a dedicated website, further boosting its visibility.
The shop features a modern and inviting atmosphere, underlined by two vintage barber chairs that offer a classic grooming experience. Equipped with an array of high-quality grooming products and tools, the shop is designed for both comfort and functionality. Its convenient high street location affords easy access and visibility, driving foot traffic and attracting potential customers.
Potential for Growth
With an existing customer base and various service offerings, there is significant potential for growth. The current owner is looking to sell due to family reasons and is willing to ensure a smooth transition by remaining available for training and support for the new owners.
The barbershop is available as a leasehold for £105,000, with a current annual turnover of £178,000 and an annual rent of £8,400. All stock is included in the purchase price.
