A rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully presented, premium bridal boutique arranged over two floors in a prime High Street position in Billericay, Essex. This is a genuine going‑concern sale offered with all goodwill, fixtures, fittings, and approximately £56,000 worth of stock at valuation. The business currently trades strictly by appointment only, Friday to Sunday, and is operated as a hobby by the existing owners. As a result, the boutique functions at roughly 40% of its potential capacity, presenting exceptional upside for a full‑time owner‑operator to expand opening hours, introduce walk‑ins, and significantly increase turnover. 

Current turnover sits at approximately £83,000, yielding a conservative net profit of circa £22,500 per annum – this is currently being reinvested in the business by our clients but given they are working on as approximately 70% Gross Profit margin any only trades 3 days a week with no walk ins demonstrates just how much more profitable it could be with a hands on new owner.

Established for over 13 years, the boutique offers a premium, personalised bridal experience. The ground floor showcases a curated range of established designer gowns including Evie Young, Madison James and Phoenix Gowns, while the first floor provides a dedicated private bridal suite — a unique concept that delivers an intimate, emotional experience far beyond a standard fitting room. With high‑quality décor, modern fittings, and fixtures valued at approximately £15,000, the premises are fully fitted and ready for immediate continuation of trade.

THE BUSINESS

Currently operated on a limited appointment-led basis, with one Friday appointment slot and core trading on Saturdays and Sundays, leaving substantial unused weekday capacity for a full-time owner-operator. This limited schedule reflects the owners’ hobby‑based approach rather than the business’s capability. A full‑time owner‑operator would immediately unlock substantial additional turnover through weekday opening, walk‑ins, expanded retail lines, and enhanced appointment availability.

Turnover is primarily derived from dress sales, with accessories, retail items, shoes, veils, jewellery and alterations representing a small proportion of revenue. With an 80% gross profit margin and strong demand for premium bridal services, the business offers significant scope to expand product lines, introduce drinks packages, enhance the private bridal suite experience, and develop additional revenue streams.

RATES

Business rates payable: £2,650 per annum.

TURNOVER

Annual turnover: Approximately £83,000 

Adjusted net profit (excluding reinvestment): Circa £22,500  

Gross profit margin: Approximately 70%. 

The current owners have reinvested heavily in stock, suppressing net profit. Without this reinvestment, net profit would be circa £22,500, with substantial upside for a full‑time owner‑operator. Please note: profit figure is based on current trading margins and recurring operating costs, before owner remuneration, rather than statutory net profit.

TRADING HOURS

Friday – Sunday: Appointment only

Monday – Thursday: Closed

Significant potential to expand to full‑time opening and introduce walk‑in trade.

STAFF

Owner‑run hobby business. No staff transfer.

LEASE

3‑year commercial lease, 2 years remaining. Rent: £19,000 per annum. No rent review until end of lease
