Thriving Butchers And Delicatessen In Stone Staffordshire For Sale

Business description

We are delighted to offer for sale this thriving butchers and delicatessen, which was established by our client in 1980 and which is only now being offered to the market due to our client's wish to retire. The business trades 6 days a week and generates a turnover in the region of £182,000 per annum with a gross profit of 50%. Brydon's Quality Meats offers a wide range of fresh meat and delicatessen products, as well as fresh sandwiches, pastries and hot and cold drinks. We feel turnover could be increased by introducing a sandwich delivery service. There is also the opportunity to establish outside catering and develop a website to advertise the business. Extending the opening hours to 7 days a week would also increase turnover. The business has an enviable reputation and is renowned for its high quality produce. The premises are well-equipped to suit the trade and are fitted to a high standard throughout. This is an ideal opportunity to acquire a profitable butchers business with huge scope for future growth. Early negotiations with us must come highly recommended.
