Leasehold Pet Shop For Sale

Business description

Bag a Business Ltd is delighted to offer for sale this busy pet shop in Dorchester, Dorset. The business was established by our client in January 2007 and is only now being offered to the market due to her wish to retire. The business operates as a traditional pet shop offering an extensive range of loose and pre-packed pet food, cages, hutches, pet beds and accessories. The premises benefit from a large first floor area, currently used for storage, which would make an ideal aquatic centre or be utilised for live pets, for which we are led to believe there is huge demand.. The business is predicted to generate a turnover in the region of £83,000 for its first year of trading, achieving a gross profit of 38%. There remains vast potential to increase the turnover as very little marketing has been undertaken and currently there is no website for the business. The business also benefits from very low overheads, with an annual rent of just £10,450. Early viewing is highly recommended to avoid disappointment.
