Business History

Meridian Business Sales are delighted to offer to the market this superb pet warehouse which was established by our client over 7 years ago. The only reason this excellent and thriving business is being offered to the market is due to our clients desire to take a well deserved retirement. Since establishing the business our client has invested time and money on the business premises to the point that they are now in full walk-in condition for any prospective purchaser. We are advised of a very respectable annual turnover of £380,000 with good gross profits which is derived from the sale of live domestic and tropical animals as well as supplies and feed for a broad spectrum of animals including tropical fish and reptiles. The business benefits from a high percentage of repeat and regular customers as well as high numbers of passing trade due to its superb trading location. There is great scope to further develop the business' turnover as very limited advertising is currently employed and a more aggressive marketing strategy would almost certainly be of benefit. There is also the potential to further develop the equestrian side to the business which is extremely popular in the area; a fully functional website is also included in the sale price. This is a wonderful opportunity to purchase a thriving business with an outstanding reputation and as such early viewing is highly recommended as this business is not to be missed.
