Business History
We are privileged to offer to the market this well established village Post Office and store. The business has been established for over 60 years and has been in the careful hands of our client for the last 17 years. This superb concern is only being offered to the market due to our clients wish for a well deserved retirement. Our client informs us that the annual turnover for the retail sales is £189,971. The turnover is derived from selling newspapers, tobacco, bread, milk, general groceries, greeting cards, frozen foods, toiletries and chemistry goods. The Post Office salary stands at £19,000 per annum where they offer the usual services except, DVLA or passports. The business is owner operated and does not need any staff. During our clients ownership they have made it into a lovely family home and have continually invested in new equipment and fixtures and fittings which are all included within the sale price which is a huge plus for a new owner as additional funds will not need to be spent for some time. We believe that there is still potential to increase turnover by opening Saturday afternoon and Sundays or by knocking through and extending the retail sales area. Early viewing is highly recommended as this business cannot be missed.
