Business Summary:
Advent Business Sales are delighted to offer
to the market this extremely well established
post office/newsagent/convenience store,
which has been trading successfully for at
least 30 years.
The current vendor has been in ownership for
the last two years but has now obtained a
professional degree and wishes to pursue this
avenue of employment.
Due to its superb decoration, lay out and
offer, as well as its monopolistic position,
the total sales are increasing month on
month, giving the business total stability
and fantastic long term potential.
As well as every day items, the shop has an
ATM machine, Paypoint and Payzone. The
stock control is on EPOS and all newspaper
accounts are handled by software, keeping
the chore of billing to a minimum.
A new CCTV system is in place as well as an
automatic shop door for the convenience of
customers.
The husband and wife team staffs the
business.
TRADING HOURS
Mon – Thurs: 6am – 8pm
Fri – Sat: 6am – 9pm
Sun: 9am – 2pm
EXPANSION POTENTIAL
With its monopolistic position, both in post
office work as well convenience goods,
beers/wines and spirits and also newsagents
and its positioning in a reasonably affluent
area, the increasing turnover is hardly
surprising.
Add to this is modern, clean, well laid out
appearance and the formula can only point
to success.
This is not to lose sight of the fact that it
has a very generous family accommodation
with garden and garage.
