Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this busy Post Office and convenience store, which has been in our client's careful hands since 1993. The business is only now offered for sale due to our client's wish to retire. The premises are well equipped to suit the trade with a spacious shop area with a central display aisle, counter area and fully shelved walls. The store also boasts 3-bedroom owners' accommodation with private garden to rear. The Post Office benefits from being in a monopoly trading position in the village. Our client stocks a variety of high quality products including general CTN lines, alcohol and tobacco products. The business currently trades 7 days a week, which generates a turnover in the region of £230,000. We feel the turnover could be increased by extending opening hours and applying for the lottery. Our client has advised us there are plans in place for 400 new houses to be built in the area. The new owner could, if desired, establish a leaflet marketing campaign to the other local villages. This is an ideal opportunity to acquire an already busy Post Office and convenience store, which has further potential and large owners' accommodation. Early negotiations with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
