Craft Bakery & Patisserie In Cumbria For Sale

Business description

Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer to the market this well established craft bakery and patisserie, which has been in our client's hands since 1995 and is only now being offered to the market due to their wish to retire. The business achieves a turnover in the region of £4,500 per week with a gross profit of 59.3%. This award-winning business offers a range of goods including some unique products, such as marmalade and cinnamon tea bread. The business is run by our clients, with the help of 6 loyal and multi skilled, part-time members of staff and our client is willing to assist during a hand over period. We feel this is an ideal opportunity for a new owner to take this already successful business to the next level and urge early viewing to fully appreciate.
