Scottish Business Centre are delighted to bring to the market Bocca Bona. Specialists in authentic Italian wood fired pizzas, Bocca Bona sits on Main Street within the Midlothian town of Balerno, southwest of the city of Edinburgh. The well-presented, double shop front licensed leasehold premises which our clients took over in 2020 has been fully fitted and offers the Bocca Bona branding throughout.

Winner of the Pizzeria of the year, Edinburgh award for 2021/22, our clients focus from day one has been on authenticity & quality. Using only the freshest produce, the award winning Bocca Bona has already built up a first-class reputation for excellent service and quality of the authentic Italian cuisine on offer.

In addition to the vast selection of wood fired pizzas on offer, Bocca Bona also offers a range of Italian starters, sides, salads, and mains. From fresh spaghetti to home-made Lasagne Bolognese, the well thought-out and sensibly priced food menu offers an additional draw to the business. While most orders are either takeaway or delivery, the premises does cater for some dine in.

On starting the business, our clients were aware of the need to offer a clear and straightforward online booking system which can be accessed directly via the Bocca Bona website. Available Sunday to Thursday and offering various meal deals, plus ice cream, drinks alcohol plus a range of sides, the online booking system has proven to be a major income generator for the business.

While the current trading levels are healthy and are showing real signs of growth, a new owner may wish to capitalise on the freshly premade “dine at home” food market that since the pandemic of 2020 has become a real area of growth within the sector.

By having the additional space of the large prep room to the rear, Bocca Bona is perfectly placed to tap into this growing market. Now that the brand has built up such a strong level of following and recognition, in the future, new owners may wish to consider going down the franchise route with Bocca Bona.

Due to personal reasons, our clients have reluctantly decided to offer the business for sale. Early viewings are recommended to avoid disappointment.
