Dry Cleaners And Laundry Service In Sussex For Sale

Business description

Preferred Commercial is pleased to offer for sale this popular dry cleaners and laundry service, which has been in our client's careful hands since 2003 and which is only now being placed on the market due to our client's other business interests. The business trades 6-days per week and generates a turnover in the region of £65,000 per annum with a gross profit of 55%, derived from offering general dry cleaning and laundry facilities along with sewing and alterations. We feel that turnover could be increased by embarking on a modest marketing campaign and perhaps the introduction of a website. The new owner could, if desired, contact local businesses such as hotels and bed and breakfasts offering laundry and ironing services. Our client has gained an excellent reputation and a loyal customer base by offering a high quality service, which ensures much repeat trade. The premises boast a large service area with 2 x commercial washing machines, dry cleaning machine and a tumble dryer. This is an ideal opportunity to acquire a popular dry cleaning business, which is well-equipped and in a walk-in-and-trade condition, with scope to develop further. Early discussions with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
