Freehold Fishmongers For Sale

Business description

Bag a Business Ltd is delighted to offer to the market this thriving fishmongers and specialist caterers business, which was established and has been owned by the same family since 1958, with our client being at the helm since 1970. M J Hodges is only now being placed on the market due to his wish to retire. The business enjoys an excellent turnover in the region of £270,000 per annum, which is derived from the sale of fresh and smoked fish, which is smoked in the on-site smoke room. This is further enhanced by approximately £22,000 per year, which is generated by the extremely well equipped catering section of the business, which has numerous advanced bookings. We feel that this represents an ideal base for a new owner to build upon, perhaps by exploiting the niche market that the on-site smoke room gives, offering internet sales or by expanding the catering side of the business. Our client would be happy to stay on for an agreed handover period. Early viewing is strongly recommended.

There has been a tremendous amount of investment in the surrounding area over recent years resulting in this becoming one of the more sought after parts of the capital.
