Leasehold Butchers For Sale

Business description

Phoenix are delighted to place onto the market this unique business opportunity. This butchery has been established for many years, with our client having owned the business for over 12 months. As well as providing traditional products the business specialises in South African products and groceries. All of the meats and sausages are prepared on site and everything is fresh and produced to a very high standard.

A particular speciality is biltong and dry wors which is of top quality and is reputed to be the best in the country. In fact all items are presently being distributed nationally by a distributor.

Several thousand pounds have been spent on advertising and the excellent reputation enjoyed by the business is increasing turnover week by week. This is a unique niche business.

Our client would be available for an extended business familiarisation period to fully train any new owners in the art of making these products.

As well as a full time owner there is also a full time butcher and 1 part time member of staff who works approximately 14 hours per week.

The potential of the business is huge and the products are becoming nationally known and turnover could easily double.
