Falcon Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this busy Post Office. The business has been established many years and was purchased by our client in 2013 during which time they have made considerable investment and improvements to the business. It is now reluctantly being placed on the market as the vendor now lives in London. During our client’s stewardship the business has built up an excellent reputation for its welcoming atmosphere and friendly service which is reflected in the turnover and profits.
Operating from well-maintained premises, this fantastic opportunity is operated as a traditional Post Office with additional sales of mainly high margin products such as greetings cards and stationery.
Tredegar Post Office is run by a dedicated team of part time staff. We are advised that the Post Office income is £67,000 and shop sales approximately £14,000 per year. There is tremendous potential to increase the turnover possibly by increasing the range of products offered for sale in the shop.
This rarely available opportunity is not to be missed and early negotiations with Falcon Commercial come highly recommended.
