Newsagent And Convenience Store In Budleigh Salterton For Sale

Business description

Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this well-established newsagents and convenience store, which has been operated by our client since 2002 and which is only now presented to the market due to our client's wish to retire. The substantial premises have been refurbished throughout and boast a ground floor retail sales area along with a first floor flat. The property was re-roofed in 2007 and the roof terrace was renewed in 2009. The sales area was re-modelled in 2009, including new chillers. The 2-bedroom flat was renovated in early 2011 including new kitchen, new bathroom, new combi-boiler and re-decoration throughout. The large shop premises stock a range of general CTN lines along with a variety of groceries and alcohol products. There are also Lotto facilities and a Pay Point machine installed and our client services a number of newspaper delivery rounds. Lottery turnover is approximately £1000 per week which generates a commission of approximately £80 per week. Our client has developed a loyal customer base within the local community, which ensures much repeat trade. The business currently trades seven days per week, which generates a turnover in the region of £250,000 per annum with a gross profit of 28%. We feel the turnover could be further improved by extending the opening hours to exploit the evening trade. We are also advised that a rental income of approximately £625 per month could be achieved by rented out the accommodation. This is an ideal lifestyle change opportunity, which offers the new owner an already profitable business with further potential, situated in a great location. Early viewing and negotiations with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
