Calling all creative entrepreneurs, crafters and lifestyle business seekers! Here's your chance to acquire Jane's Knit & Stitch Emporium, a much-loved independent haberdashery, knitting and alterations business located in the charming market town of Stony Stratford, Milton Keynes.
Bursting with character and loyal customers, this is far more than just a wool shop – it's a creative hub offering quality yarns, haberdashery, sewing accessories, clothing alterations and repairs, with a fantastic reputation within the local community. The business also benefits from a healthy pipeline of work and exciting opportunities for future growth.
Established as a respected destination for knitting, crochet and sewing enthusiasts, the business offers an extensive range of:
Premium knitting yarns
Haberdashery
Sewing accessories
Craft supplies
Clothing alterations and repairs
Curtain, cushion and soft furnishing alterations
In addition to retail sales, the alterations side of the business provides a valuable second income stream, creating excellent repeat custom throughout the year. The business has been owned by the owner since 2021 and is only being offered for sale due to health reasons.
A strong order book with approximately £5,000 worth of work already in the pipeline provides an excellent start for a new owner.
Why This Business Stands Out
Well-established and highly regarded independent craft business
Loyal customer base with an excellent local reputation
Multiple revenue streams including retail sales and alterations
Healthy pipeline of work already secured
No business rates payable
Affordable annual rent
Fantastic lifestyle business with genuine growth potential
Huge scope to increase trading hours, expand online sales, introduce workshops, knitting groups, sewing classes or e-commerce
Whether you're an experienced retailer, a keen crafter or someone looking for a rewarding business with enormous potential, Jane's Knit & Stitch Emporium represents an exciting opportunity to take over a well-loved local business and make it your own.
