(main agent for Hallmark) and gift wrap with extremely high profit margins, addition to this, sales are derived through the Convenience store & Lottery sales.

Situated in a lock-up unit on a high street, it finds itself nestled amidst a mix of local independent shops with ample parking.

This business perfectly serves its clientele made up of professionals, young families, and the elderly. A real lifeline and a hub of the community, contributing to its already buoyant market presence. An attractive proposition for potential buyers is its robust location, train station less then 2 mins walk M1 and Fosse Park all within a few minutes drive away.

Reluctantly, we are looking to emigrate to concentrate on our business abroad presenting an opportune moment for a prospective buyer to step in and take the helm.

Since its purchase in 2012 the Post Office has seen remuneration of £55,000 and rising with the recent introduction of Dpd & Amazon service. Evri Parcel service is also soon to be introduced which will give a potential buyer even higher re- numeration.

The Post Office offers all services, plus full on demand Currency, Passport Check & Send Service. Id. Verification, Driving License. Addition to this we have invested in a digital Passport service giving customers the opportunity to have photographs taken professionally and digital codes sent to their emails. This is extremely lucrative giving 95% profit margin & an annual net income of £3000+. Retail sales are steady at £1,700 per week approx which could be greatly improved upon as the we run the business to suit other personal commitments.

One of the many ways the business draws its customers is it sells the old fashioned way out sweets, which is very popular as there is nothing nearby. Margins are high 60%.

The premises comprise of a lock-up unit with a sturdy 2 position fortress counter & a Combi retail counter. CCTV cameras & 2 fogging machines with level 1 intruder response time. Energy efficient Led lighting.
