Thriving Convenience Store In Rhymney Gwent For Sale

Business description

Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this thriving convenience store, which was established in 1930 and which has been in our clients' careful hands since 2008. The store is only now being place on the market due to our clients' other business interests. The business trades 7 days a week and generates a turnover in the region of £130,000 per annum with a gross profit of 24%. Spikes Shop offers an extensive range of high quality products including, groceries, fresh pies and sandwiches and convenience lines. There is tremendous scope to increase the turnover by extending the range of products available, such as alcohol, newspapers, tobacco, and offer the lottery and PayPoint facilities. The shop has gained an excellent reputation over 82 years of trading and enjoys a loyal customer base with much repeat trade. The property has been well-maintained throughout and boasts a spacious retail area and well-equipped commercial kitchen. We feel the kitchen could be utilised to offer outside catering services. There is also spacious 3-bedroom owners' accommodation to the first floor with lounge, kitchen and bathroom. There is a building to rear of the property, which we feel could be converted into a studio apartment, subject to planning permission being granted. Early negotiations with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
