ESTABLISHED INDIAN RESTAURANT FOR SALE CONFIDENTIAL SALE

Established for Over 20 Years | Genuine Retirement Opportunity

CONFIDENTIAL SALE – SERIOUS ENQUIRIES ONLY

 

A rare opportunity to acquire a highly successful and well-established Indian restaurant that has been owned and operated by the same owner for over 20 years.

 

This is a genuine retirement sale. The business is not being sold due to financial pressures or declining trade. It continues to trade successfully and has provided an excellent living for many years.

 

I am only considering selling because I now wish to retire. If the right buyer does not come along, I am happy to continue operating the business. For this reason, the sale is being handled on a confidential basis.

 

Over the past two decades, the restaurant has built an excellent reputation, a loyal customer base and consistent trade, becoming a well-established and respected business within the local community.

 

THE RESTAURANT

• Beautifully presented throughout with no major investment required.
• Seating for approximately 60 diners.
• Large reception and waiting area.
• Large private customer car park with space for up to 28 vehicles.
• Trading 7 evenings a week from 5:30pm – 11:00pm, 
   

EXCEPTIONALLY LOW OVERHEADS

Restaurants with overheads like these are becoming increasingly difficult to find.

• Annual rent of only £11,000.
• 25-year lease with approximately 5 years remaining.
• OPEN LEASE, allowing a new lease to be negotiated at the end of term.
• No business rates, currently benefiting from Small Business Rates Relief.

 

This represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a long-established restaurant with exceptionally low fixed running costs.

 

A BUSINESS WITH EXCEPTIONAL GROWTH POTENTIAL

This is where the real opportunity lies.

I have always preferred to run the business in a traditional way, relying on our reputation, loyal customers and word-of-mouth recommendations. Because the business has consistently performed well, I have never felt the need to expand into many of the modern opportunities available to restaurants today.

 

In over 20 years:

• We have never joined Just Eat, Uber Eats, Deliveroo or any other online ordering platform.
• Customers cannot currently order online through our website.
• We have never opened for lunchtime service.
• All takeaway orders are taken by telephone only.
• We have never actively marketed the business through social media or digital advertising.

 

Despite never taking advantage of these additional revenue streams, the restaurant has continued to trade successfully year after year.

 

A new owner has a fantastic opportunity to increase turnover by introducing online ordering, delivery platforms, lunchtime trading, digital marketing and other modern growth strategies.

 

LICENSED OR UNLICENSED – THE CHOICE IS YOURS

 

The restaurant currently operates as an unlicensed Indian restaurant.

 

An alcohol licence can be obtained should a new owner wish to serve alcohol. Choosing not to sell alcohol has always been a personal business decision and preference rather than a restriction of the premises.

 

Many licensed restaurants benefit from increased customer spend through alcohol sales. A new owner who chooses to obtain a licence has the opportunity to introduce an additional revenue stream while benefiting from the restaurant’s already established customer base.

 

CONTINUE AS A SUCCESSFUL INDIAN RESTAURANT OR INTRODUCE SOMETHING NEW

 

The business has been successfully trading as an Indian restaurant for over 20 years and enjoys an excellent reputation with a loyal customer base.

 

Equally, the premises offer an exciting opportunity for someone with a different vision. There are currently no other restaurant cuisines operating in the village/town, creating a unique opportunity for a buyer wishing to introduce a different restaurant concept while benefiting from an established restaurant premises, existing facilities and a proven trading location.

 

A BUSINESS THAT HAS STOOD THE TEST OF TIME

 

The restaurant industry is one of the most challenging sectors in which to succeed, yet this business has continued to trade successfully for more than two decades through changing markets and economic conditions.

 

That longevity provides confidence that you are acquiring a business with proven foundations, an established reputation and a loyal customer following.

 

Restaurants rarely come to the market offering:

• An established customer base.
• Beautifully presented premises.
• Seating for approximately 60 diners.
• Private parking for up to 28 vehicles.
• Exceptionally low rent.
• No business rates.
• Significant untapped growth potential.

 

WHY I’M SELLING

 

After more than 20 successful years, I have decided that the time has come to retire.

 

I have genuinely enjoyed running this business and it has provided me with an excellent living. I have simply continued operating in the traditional way because it has always worked for me.

 

I truly believe the next owner can take the business to another level by introducing the growth opportunities that I have never chosen to pursue.

 

CONFIDENTIAL SALE

 

To protect the business, staff and customers, no photographs have been published with this advertisement.

 

This is a confidential sale, and I do not wish the business to be openly marketed while it continues to trade successfully.

 

Photographs, additional information and financial details will be provided to genuine prospective purchasers following an initial discussion.

 

A RARE OPPORTUNITY

 

Businesses like this rarely become available.

An established restaurant with over 20 years of successful trading, exceptionally low overheads, a loyal customer base, private parking for 28 vehicles, and multiple untapped growth opportunities is difficult to find.

 

Whether you choose to continue building on the success of this well-established Indian restaurant or introduce a completely new restaurant concept, this business offers an exceptional platform for future growth.
