Village Tearoom And Bistro In Macduff Aberdeenshire For Sale

Business description

Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this busy village tearoom and bistro, which was established by our clients in 2003 and which is only now offered to the market due to our clients' wish to retire. The business trades 5 days a week and generates a turnover in the region of £50,000 per annum with a gross profit of 71%. The tearooms offer an extensive range of high quality snack food and beverages to eat in or takeaway, with tables and chairs for up to with 22 covers. We feel the turnover could be further increased by extending the opening hours and from a modest marketing campaign. There is also scope to establish an outside catering service to generate additional income. Our clients are renowned for providing quality food at a reasonable price and enjoy much repeat trade and a large customer base. The business generates a lot of its trade from the surrounding area, but enjoys high levels of custom in the summer period from tourists visiting the area. The premises have been fitted to a high standard throughout and boast spacious 4-bedroom owners' accommodation over split levels. A new owner could, if desired, convert some or all of the living accommodation into letting rooms to increase the turnover further. This is an ideal opportunity to acquire a profitable tearoom and bistro with an excellent reputation and 4-bedroom owners' accommodation. Early negotiations with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
