Falcon Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this well presented Specialist Wholesale Bakers. It has been under the proud ownership of our client since 2003 during which time they have made considerable investment and improvements to reflect how the business has grown over the years. It is now being offered for sale as the owner wishes to retire. During our client’s stewardship the business has built up an excellent reputation for its gorgeous bakery products that include Pasties, Pies, Sausage Rolls, Quiches and Cakes.
The business enjoys an excellent trading position on a growing modern industrial estate in Honiton, Devon.. The good-sized triple unit is used as the production base where the bakery products are handcrafted. They are then supplied to a variety of prestigious companies, often on a wholesale basis.
Our clients run the business with help from a dedicated team of approximately 10 members of staff. It generates a turnover in the region of £487,000 per year with healthy gross profit margins. There is tremendous potential to increase the turnover possibly by running a modest marketing campaign or by expanding the range of products offered or by extending working hours.

This rarely available opportunity is not to be missed and early negotiations with Falcon Commercial come highly recommended.
