The business has been owned by our clients since 2007 and was run as one of two business’s owned by our clients in the town. The other being assigned by ga-select in december 2011. Our client is retiring from the industry. Sales are running to circa £3.000 p/w on a sales split of 30% wet to 70% dry. You need to look past the accounts to get a true measure of this business’s potential. By using available hours which are currently not used and with a new energetic owner then we believe that sales of £350,000 (£7,000 p/w) are well within reach of this business bearing in mind the strength of its location.
