Business description
Bag a Business Ltd is delighted to offer for sale this thriving and highly regarded cafe/takeaway business, located in such a prime trading position, within the centre of Bury. The Met Cafe currently has an annual turnover in excess of £200,000 achieving a 70% gross profit. It has an enviable reputation for the quality of its breakfasts, sandwiches, toasties, smoothies, omelettes and coffee and consequently generates much repeat custom. There remains infinite scope to develop turnover further as the business currently closes at 6.00pm, despite demand in the area for evening trade. In the past the premises have had an alcohol licence, when it had traded just as a takeaway business, thereby offering additional scope to renew the licence and sell alcohol if desired. This is a particularly attractive purchase as the premises have undergone a substantial refurbishment programme and benefit from an exceptionally high standard of contemporary fixtures and fittings throughout. The ground floor benefits from an open plan kitchen and tables and chairs for 8 covers, whilst there are an additional 30 covers on the first floor. The cafe is also well-known throughout the local business community, with the first floor dining area popular for private parties and functions. This is a unique opportunity to purchase a thriving and highly regarded business and as such early discussions with Bag a Business Ltd are essential.
