Business History

We are delighted to offer to the market this popular bakery and convenience store which was established in 1981 and has been the careful hands of our clients since 1991. Bakery has been an established business for 30 years, and has been owned currently by our vendors since 1991. Our clients are reluctantly offering the business to the market due to their desire to take well deserved retirement. Sine our clients took ownership of the bakery they have run the business at a pace that suits their lifestyle, meaning that there is massive scope for a new hands on owner operator to further develop the business. Our clients inform us that the annual turnover currently runs at approximately £97,625, which is derived from the sales of freshly baked bread, pies, pasties and confectionary items as well as offering convenience store and newsagent facilities. The business enjoys a strong reputation within the local community and as such has a high level of regular and repeat trade. This is a superb opportunity to purchase an established business, which is a great base to build upon and as such early viewing is highly recommended as businesses of this calibre rarely stay on the market for long.
