Leasehold Fishing Tackle & Bait Retail For Sale

Business description

Bag a Business Ltd is delighted to place onto the market Bernies Bait and Tackle shop, which was established in 1997 and has been in the careful hands of our client since 2004. The business is only now being placed on the market due our client's wish to retire. This angling shop offers fishing tackle and all related accessories, as well as air gun pellets. It is an easily run concern with only casual labour employed for holidays and time off. It now has a huge client base as it is the only shop of its kind in the area. Currently the business has a turnover of approximately £73,144, achieving a gross profit of £34,482. Included in the sale price are all fixtures and fittings, which are valued at over £6,000. The business is well stocked with a cost value being in the region of £30,000. Turnover and profits could be improved by more marketing and advertising and also with e-commerce. This concern would suit an enthusiast with energy and drive. Our client would be happy to stay for a handover period. Early discussions with Bag a Business Ltd must come highly recommended.

Location:

Bernies Bait and Tackle shop is situated in a parade of shops, within archways, on Snuff Street. It lies next door to a busy sandwich shop and is on the site that was originally part of the snuff factory. It is just off the Market Place, which is the main commercial area of the town. The market town is dominated by Independent retailers and there is ample free parking within the vicinity. There is a development immediately opposite the premises and the entire street will become semi- pedestrianised. Fishing is still a strong pastime in the area, which has approximately 20 lakes and the Kennet and Avon Canal. Much of the trade is drawn from neighbouring areas such as Pewsey, Marlborough, Calne, and the surrounding villages. There is also good access to the M4 motorway.
