Location
Conveniently positioned in Wandsworth SW8, close to Wandsworth Road Overground Station and the Main Post Office Head Office. The area benefits from a mixture of residential properties and local businesses, with an established customer base built up over many years.
A late-night venue opposite the premises creates additional evening and weekend trading opportunities.
Significant Growth Potential
The business is currently trading below its full potential.
The owner advises that the business previously achieved weekly sales in the region of £8,000–£10,000. Due to personal circumstances and the lack of additional management support, the owner gradually stepped back from the day-to-day running of the business, which subsequently affected overall sales performance.
The current owners now operate reduced trading hours, remain closed on Sundays and have not introduced a number of modern growth channels.
Importantly, the business is not currently registered with Deliveroo, Uber Eats or Just Eat, creating an immediate opportunity for a new owner to increase turnover.
Further opportunities include:
Introducing Deliveroo, Uber Eats and Just Eat
Opening seven days per week
Extending trading hours
Introducing card payment facilities
Refurbishing and modernising the premises
Expanding social media marketing
Reintroducing late-night trading where permitted
Expanding catering and corporate orders
Partnership Opportunity
The owner is also open to discussing a partnership arrangement with the right individual.
The owner is willing to remain involved in food preparation, maintaining quality standards and sharing the expertise that has contributed to the business's success, while a new partner manages and grows the business.
The level of investment, ownership percentage and premium payable by the incoming partner are open for discussion and will be agreed directly between the owner and the successful applicant, subject to terms acceptable to both parties.

Buying a business is not covered by consumer rights legislation. It is your responsibility to acquire a business that holds up in quality and agreement.
Fraudsters will typically use false news in an attempt to get you to act quickly. For example, 'Your account has been disabled. Reset your password now.'.
Review the performance of a business to make appropriate financial projections. Some businesses are dormant or not trading, so it is essential to check their short and long-term potential.
