Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this busy newsagents, general store and Post Office, which was established in 1975 and which has been in our client's careful hands since 1980. The newsagents is only now being placed on the market due to ill health. The business trades 7 days a week and generates a turnover in the region of £298,000 per annum with a gross profit of 33% and a Post Office salary of £35,000 per annum. The business also offers the lottery with a turnover in the region of £72,000 per annum. The newsagents currently offers 10 news rounds per day with a weekly newssheet of £2,250. A new owner could increase turnover by perhaps extending the opening hours, offering more seasonal goods and perhaps embarking on a modest advertising campaign. The lock up premises are ideally located to capture passing trade. We feel this is an ideal opportunity to acquire a thriving multi-faceted business with scope for future growth. Early discussions with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
