CoGoGo is delighted to present to the market the opportunity to purchase (on a leasehold basis) a well-established, family owned and run pet shop in the popular town of Brechin.

Pets Pantry has been trading locally for some 25 years and has built up an enviable reputation with many loyal customers and a fantastic amount of repeat and referral business. The current owner has decided to place the business on the open market as she looks to concentrate and grow other business interests.

The business itself trades as a traditional pet supplies and specialist store in all things pet related, retailing everything from a simple dog chew through to tropical fish, birds, pet food, cages, and hutches.

We feel there is scope to increase the turnover perhaps with a new owner embarking on a modest marketing campaign to highlight the excellent products offered, along with the introduction of a dedicated website to promote the business incorporating an online store, along with further use of social media to help generate an increase in sales. Our client has indicated that there is also the possibility to buy the freehold along with the business.

All fixtures and fittings are to be included in the sale.

Very rarely do businesses opportunities like this come to the open market, therefore early viewings are highly recommended.
