Busy Florist In Millom South Cumbria For Sale

Business description

We are delighted to offer for sale this popular florist, which was established by our client in 1988 and which is only now 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 £50,000 per annum with a gross profit of 85%. June's Floral Design caters for events and functions such as weddings, funerals and the general public. We feel the turnover could be further increased by extending the opening hours of the store and perhaps from embarking on modest marketing campaign to increase commercial trade. Our client has gained an excellent reputation over 20 years of trading and receives much repeat trade and word of mouth recommendations. The premises boast a spacious retail area with numerous display units and a store room. This is an ideal opportunity to acquire an already busy florist with huge scope for future growth. Early negotiations with us must come highly recommended.
