Blacks Brokers are pleased to bring to the market this freehold traditional fish and chip shop located in Wesham, Lancashire.
INTRODUCTION
Wesham Chippy has been trading on West View for over 80 years and our client acquired the business in 2004. Our client has built upon the solid trading heritage and the business has earned an enviable reputation within the town and surrounding area.
Wesham Chippy has a strong social media presence with over 3000 Facebook followers and excellent reviews on Trip Advisor with a five star hygiene rating.
LOCATION
Wesham is located in Lancashire, one mile north-west of the town of Kirkham, seven miles east of the major town of Blackpool. The nearest railway station is a quarter mile away with the M55 junction just half a mile. The business benefits from heavy footfall in this busy town centre location.
REASON FOR SALE
This opportunity has become available due to our clients’ other business interests and therefore the business has been placed on the open market at this appealing price point.
LEASE
The building is available on a freehold basis and as such no leases are applicable. We are informed by our client that the property is brick construction.
STAFF
Our clients operate the business on a full time basis and are supported by two part time members of staff. All staff have contracts of employment and provide continuity to the customers ensuring a smooth handover.
FINANCIAL DETAILS
We are informed by our client that the business can show steady trading over the years and the current trading figures are £84,064 per annum with a gross profit 50,693.
BUSINESS RATES
The business currently benefits from Small Business Rates Relief.
SUMMARY
This is a well respected traditional fish and chip shop that has a trading heritage that spans over eighty years. The business is truly at the heart of the local community and our client has built upon its fine reputation. The building offers great flexibility and the opportunity to create a lucrative additional second income by placing the living accommodation on the residential rental market after some modernisation has taken place.
The business would ideally suit an owner operator team who could push the business even further by broadening the menu and extending the opening hours.
This is an exciting opportunity so early viewings are advised.
