Business description
PRICE MASSIVELY REDUCED FOR QUICK SALE. The business sells sandwiches, pies and snacks, direct from our own converted Mercedes Vito van, to businesses in the local area.
The van is "54" registration and is the new shape "Vito". It has been converted by the vendors to include a large chiller area with display shelves and a huge oven at the back to display pies and other hot products.
The business has been established for over 7 years and still retains many of its original customers.
Property information
- Location:
- The business is currently operated from a manufacturing unit that is not included in the sale. The business can be easily run from home.
Other information
- Expansion potential:
- The expansion potential is massive, as this is not a core area of business for the current owners. By their own admission, the current owners have failed to focus their attention on this side of the business and as a result no marketing or active selling has been undertaken for a good 2 years.
- Competition / Market:
- Sandwich sales direct to business workers is a highly competitive market. However this "van" continues to be successful despite continuous and new competition.
- Support & training:
- The vendors are happy to offer one week's training on the existing round. The vendors are happy to wholesale sandwiches and pies to the new owners if that is required.
- Reasons for selling:
- The vendors operate a sandwich wholesale & manufacturing business selling to hospitals, colleges and exhibition centres. The retail van round for sale was instrumental in the success of the original business and it is with regret that this much loved part of the business is offered for sale. However, the vendors feel that there attention has strayed to other parts of the business and therefore the retail van sales would be better cared for and flourish with a new owner. The price has been reduced for quick sale as our wholesale business is expanding rapidly.
