DELI CAFE AND OUTSIDE CATERING BUSINESS in Elland for Sale.
An exciting opportunity to acquire this exceptionally well established and highly regarded deli cafe in a prime trading position in the heart of Elland town centre. The concern has built an enviable reputation for quality food, excellent coffee, generous portions and friendly service, reflected in strong customer reviews and a loyal repeat customer base.
Elland is a popular West Yorkshire town, ideally positioned between Halifax and Huddersfield, with excellent transport links and easy access to the M62 at Junctions 23 and 24. This provides convenient connections to Leeds, Bradford, Huddersfield, Manchester and the wider motorway network, while making the business ideally placed for outside catering throughout West Yorkshire.
The business operates sensible daytime hours, generating an impressive average weekly turnover of approximately £6,500 and excellent profits. It closes between Christmas and New Year and on all Bank Holidays, providing an enviable work/life balance rarely available in the catering sector. Outside catering represents approximately 15% to 20% of turnover, despite little active promotion, with most work generated through enquiries and word-of-mouth. Significant potential exists to increase turnover through targeted marketing and securing additional corporate, private function and event catering contracts.
The premises are held on lease at a modest rent and comprise a superbly fitted, air conditioned open-plan preparation, servery and dining area with 16 covers. An extensive basement commercial kitchen is exceptionally well equipped, with quality catering equipment and professional extraction, comfortably servicing both retail and outside catering.
