Veritas Business Sales is privileged to offer to the market this delightful Fish & Chip takeaway which is located in Kendal.
The business has been established for 20 years and has been in the careful hands of the current owners for the past 9 years.
They are now offering the business for sale so that they can enjoy a well-deserved retirement.
Since ownership, there has been continual investment to include a new shop refit and they have installed brand new equipment along with fixtures & fittings which are all bought and paid for and included within the sale price which is a huge plus for any new purchaser as additional funds will not need to be spent for some time.
Fridays of Kendal is owner-operated with the help of 4 part-time members of staff and a couple of casual helpers as and when needed.
For the year ending 31st March 2022 based on 45 weeks trading on only 17.5 hours per week, they posted a turnover of £285,676 with a GP of £188,758 (66%) and produced a very healthy net profit of £97,116.
The main trade is walk-in but click-and-collect and deliveries via their own app account for approximately £2,000-£2,500 per week.
They have built a fantastic reputation for serving only the finest fish & chips, along with, pies, sausages, savories, condiments and cold drinks.
The last time they entered the National Fish & Chip Awards, Fridays of Kendal were in the top 20, consistently in the Fry Magazine top 50 and Good Food Awards winner for the last 3 years.
We believe that a new owner could increase trade by extending the current opening times, increasing the food offerings such as pizzas and joining the online delivery portals such as Just Eat and Deliveroo.
The business has built a strong reputation within the local community and beyond and as such has a high level of regular and repeat trade.
This is a superb opportunity to purchase an established and newly fitted takeaway which is a great base to build upon and as such early viewing is highly recommended as this gem is not to be missed.
