Other information
- Expansion potential:
- Our client clearly has a successful business and has excellent potential to increase this further as it currently doesn’t have an off licence section and therefore with its busy passing trade throughout the day there is huge potential to dramatically increase the takings and increase the client base as well as increased advertising, extending the convenience lines and the opening hours, all would increase revenue and profits without greatly increasing overheads. Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate this business.
