Indoor Adventure Play Centre In Sittingbourne Kent For Sale

Business description

Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this popular children's indoor adventure play centre and party venue, which was established by our client in 1991 and which is only now being placed on the market due to his wish to retire. The business operates 7 days a week and generates a turnover in the region of £120,000 per annum with a gross profit of 70%. The core business is aimed at children between the ages of 1 and 12, although there has been a recent growth in bookings for private parties for both children and adults, an area a new owner could build upon. Our client also provides facilities for children with special needs. There is also scope for a new owner to extend the opening hours to increase turnover. The premises are well-equipped with a variety of play apparatus including, slides, ball-pit and swing ropes. We feel this represents an ideal opportunity to acquire a thriving indoor activity centre with huge scope for future growth. Early viewing must come highly recommended.
