Leasehold Leicester Fish And Chip Shop For Sale - Leicester, Leicestershire, United Kingdom Add this business to my shortlist >>
Business description
The shop is large , clean and attractive. There is a good sized Prep Room. All necessary equipment is in place for a traditional fish and chip shop. It is situated within a large residential area with some businesses nearby for lunchtime trade. The houses are made up of a good mix of families, couples and students.
Prior to the take over of the business by the present sellers the shop had been badly run and the trade was less than one hundred pounds per week. In the past two years the business has been built up by the present owners with customers passing as many as five or more fish and chip shops to buy the excellent quality fish and chips. The shop recently had a surprise review in the 'Leicester Mercury' paper Thursday 23rd October .08 for its quality.Trade is still growing as the reputation reaches an ever wider area. The present owners have never advertised their product and the expansion has been word of mouth.
It has to be stressed that the shop is running as a fish and chip shop with the ancillary sales of pies,sausages etc. but, no kebabs, pizzas, or the like are offered for sale. There is therefore an opportunity to increase trade by offering more. Years established: two years under present ownership. The shop has been a fish and chip shop many years before now.
Employees: none. A couple run the business with a family member helping on busy nights..
Trading hours: mon.4pm-9.30pm, tues. - sat. 12pm - 1.30pm & 5pm - 9.30pm sunday - closed
Home based: This business can be run from home.
