Business description
The business has been established by the vendors for over twenty years and has been operating from its current premises for over four years and has built up an enviable reputation during that time.
The business specialises in the framing of both customers own prints and pictures as well as prints produced from the vendors vast library of classic photographs. The classic photograph arm of the business is unique, as the vendors have built up a library of some 4000 classic photographs of towns and places of interest in Dorset and the surrounding counties. These black & white photographs, which are reproduced on the premises, provide a history of the area and are much sought after by both private and corporate clients. All these original photographs are included in the asking price. The current owners also have trade stands in the summer months at various shows in the area and this produces a good income from the sale of the classic prints.
The customer base is mostly private customers but a number of corporate clients regularly commission work as they are assured of a fast personal service
