Business description

Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this very well established business, which has been in our client's hands for the past 55 years and is only now being placed on the market due to retirement. Run very much at a pace to suit, this business along, with the 1.75 acres of land, offers tremendous scope for new owners to further develop. Currently the average weekly turnover is in the region of £2,000 achieving a gross profit of 50%. The business further benefits from caravan storage and can accommodate upto 40 at £150 per annum each. There are currently 23 units being stored. The scope this business has to offer includes increasing the retail sales side, the introduction of a MOT station as well as developing the land for commercial use, subject to planning. In our opinion this is a true lifestyle opportunity, offering a business with 3-bedroom family living accommodation. Early discussion with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
