Thriving Convenience Store In Bournemouth Dorset For Sale

Business description

Preferred Commercial is pleased to offer for sale this thriving convenience store, which was established by our client in 2008 and which is only now offered to the market due to our client's other business commitments. The business trades 7 days a week and generates a turnover in the region of £370,000 per annum with a gross profit of 28%. Good Choice offers an extensive range of products, including general CTN lines, convenience lines, alcohol and a selection of groceries. We feel the turnover could be further increased by extending the range of products available, such as frozen food and also offer newspaper delivery rounds. There is also scope to offer the Lottery and Paypoint facilities. The store enjoys much repeat trade from the local community. The premises are well-equipped to suit the trade with a spacious retail area and a large storeroom. This is an ideal opportunity to acquire an already busy convenience store in such a desirable location and with huge scope for future growth. Early negotiations with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
