TRADING & BUSINESS
The business is only being offered reluctantly for sale as the owner is relocating out of the area. Pots and Paints was started 2½ years ago by the present operator and has been comprehensively fitted and equipped with all the necessary equipment to trade as a successful studio (including a Skutt Kiln). The business is trading profitably and would be a perfect opportunity for an entrepreneurial owner with an interest in the creative arts. There is huge scope to increase the turnover and the current owner is happy to provide all assistance and training to ensure a successful handover. We have been provided with accounts which show that in the year ending April 2024 the turnover was £93,798 with a net profit of £38,658. Accounting information can be made available to genuinely interested purchasers.
TENURE
LEASEHOLD. The owners inform us that the premises are held under an original 6 year lease from November 2021, at a current rent of £13,500 per annum, exclusive. This lease can be made available to genuinely interested purchasers.
