REASON FOR SALE
The business is ideally suited to a hands-on owner-operator but sadly due to our client’s ill health retirement, the business is offered for sale. This presents an excellent opportunity for a new owner-operator or team to take the business to the next level.
LEASE
The building is available on a Full Repair and Insure lease (FRI lease). This is the most common form of commercial lease. The current lease is a six year lease which began in 2020 at a cost of £202 per week. The current owner offers sublets on two parking bays and a studio office - these agreements generate a total income of £81 per week which offsets the rent to just £121 per week of the current rent. There is also scope to let out a further three parking spaces which could generate a further £11.50 per week each.
STAFF
The business operates with our client only in employment.
FINANCIAL DETAILS
Simon Store has traded solidly since opening and our client has established a strong repeat customer base. Full financial information is available upon request.
BUSINESS RATES
