Confidential sale.
An award-winning barber shop on a busy road in Islington, North London, with five barbers rotating across four chairs and a loyal base of regular clients. Most days are fully booked, and the owner works only part of the week, so the shop runs day to day without him.
Since moving into larger premises in 2023 the business has grown every year. Turnover rose from £60,742 to £83,889 in the year to July 2025, with a net profit of £31,105 before tax.
The shop holds a five-star rating from more than 2,000 online reviews and has won its booking platform's Top Rated award every year since 2021. It welcomes clients of every gender and hair type and specialises in traditional scissor work and long hair. It has recently been fitted out, with air conditioning installed.
