CoGoGo presents to the market Darlington Diecast Models Ltd, a well-regarded specialist retailer of die-cast model cars, operating from a prime Darlington shopping centre location alongside a long-established online store.
Founded in 2020, this family-run business has built a strong reputation for stocking new, second-hand and vintage die-cast models, with over 50 recognised brands including Dinky Toys, Tootsie Toys and Solido. The business is particularly known for sourcing rare and collectable pieces, making it a destination of choice for enthusiasts and collectors across the UK.
The current owner has operated the retail unit for approximately 18 months, complementing years of successful online trading. Now offered to the market due to retirement, this is an ideal opportunity for a hobbyist or investor seeking a niche retail and e-commerce venture with growth potential.
There is a good range of stock in the shop. This is roughly £120,000 but the seller is open to reasonable negotiation.
Early viewing is highly recommended.
