Business Description
Veritas Business sales are privileged to offer to the market this established Fish & Chip Restaurant & Takeaway which is located in the highly desirable town of Stratford Upon Avon. The business has been established for over 80 years and has been in the careful hands of the current owners for the past 2 years. They are now offering the business for sale so that they can enjoy a well deserved retirement.
Since ownership they have continually invested in new equipment along with fixtures and fittings which are all bought and paid for and included within the sale price, which is a huge plus for a new owner as additional funds will not need to spent for some time. The Kingfisher is owner operated with the help of 1 full time and 3 part time members of staff and has an average weekly turnover of circa £7,500 per week. Approximately £1,000 per week comes via the online delivery portals Just Eat & Deliveroo and the remaining comes via the restaurant & takeaway. They serve a fine range of traditional fish & chips along with, chicken, pies, saveloy, burgers, sides, condiments and hot & cold drinks. All food is freshly prepared to order and can be enjoyed in the comfortable (32) seater restaurant or simply taken away.
We believe that there is further potential to increase revenue should you wish by extending the current opening times and opening on Mondays & Sundays. The restaurant enjoys a strong reputation within the local community and beyond and as such has a high level of regular and repeat trade along with many visiting tourists. This is a superb opportunity to purchase an established business which is a great base to build upon and as such early viewing is highly recommended as this is not to be missed.
