Business History

Meridian Business Sales are delighted to offer for sale this truly exceptional freehold kennels & cattery which has a proud history dating back to the 1970s. Since 2002 the business has been owned and run by our clients who are only now placing it onto the market due to their unfortunate poor health and family commitments. The business which is run and managed by our clients with the assistance of staff achieves a very respectful annual advised turnover of £45,000. This is derived from offering dog and cat accommodation services to a wide range of customers throughout the year. The business has always enjoyed excellent levels of repeat trade with many of the customers being regular visitors. The business also sees a healthy amount of new clients from good word of mouth recommendations. The opportunity offers approximately half an acre with a truly beautiful 3-4 bedroom detached double fronted bungalow, 23 kennels and 12 cat pens. The business is licensed for 42 dogs and 24 cats which make it a sizable and well accommodating service. Our clients have gone to considerable expense and effort on the presentation of the business and property which is a huge plus for a new owner as additional funds will not need to be spent for the foreseeable future. This is an ideal lifestyle change opportunity for someone who is looking for a very well presented and successful business with fine quality living accommodation. We feel that this opportunity offers a new owner an excellent base to build upon and we urge early interest in this charming property.
