Business History

Meridian Business Sales are delighted to offer for sale this excellent costume and body jewellery business which was first established by our clients in 2002 who are only now placing it onto the market due to their strong desires for retirement. The business which is run and managed by our clients achieves a very respectable advised annual turnover of £150,000 derived from the sale of a wide selection of costume and body jewellery and associated products. The business has always enjoyed excellent levels of repeat trade with many customers being regular visitors. It also sees a healthy amount of new clients from good word of mouth recommendations and from the highly visible trading location in the city centre. The shop is extremely well presented and appointed throughout and with all the fixtures and fittings being included in the sale there is no need to modernise for the foreseeable future. Our client has also explored the opportunity of selling goods online which if put into action would inevitably increase the already high turnover. We feel that this opportunity offers an excellent base for a new owner who is looking for a turn key business which is situated in one of the UK's most popular cities. Meridian Business Sales would like to advise very early interest and viewing of this charming leasehold opportunity.
