Est 1909 Butcher & Baker For Sale

Business description

Advent Business Sales are delighted to offer to the market this extremely well established butchers and bakers shop, which is celebrating its centenary this year and has been trading very successfully.

The current vendor has been in ownership for the last 12 years and is reluctantly selling due to ill health in the family and also other business interests.

The business has always been the village butcher, which until recently slaughtered its own beasts but has, under the present owner’s control, added a very successful bakery.

The shop offers a variety of meats and meat products such as spit-roasted chicken, home made sausages, hand raised pork pies and pasties and well as meat skewers etc for BBQs.

All meat is local, apart from selective cuts of Aberdeen Angus. As well as pies, the bakery offers cakes in a variety of types and sizes, as well as tarts and fruit pies.

Parking on the road is not restricted, which is a massive boost for all the customers.

The shop enjoys the accolade of two stars from the Environmental Agency, something which is not easy in butchery.

Décor and equipment is to the highest standard throughout the business, with great effort being made to ensure refrigeration is kept to its optimum requirements.

This is indeed a butcher and bakery business that is realistically set for the next 100 years of trading, a business to be proud to be involved with and delighted to own.

The business is staffed by 2 full time, 3 part timers, 1 part time cleaner and the owner full time.

We are advised that stock at cost is approximately £10,000 - £15,000.
