Leasehold Fish And Chip Takeaway/Restaurant located in Carlisle. Currently trades daytime only (30 hours). New lease to be granted. No deliveries.
Veritas Business Sales are delighted to offer for sale this respected Fish & Chip Takeaway & Restaurant which is located in Carlisle. The business was established 20 years ago and has been in the careful hands of our client for the past 4 years. They are offering the business for sale due to other business commitments requiring their attention.
Since ownership they have continually invested in new equipment, along with fixtures and fittings which are all bought and paid for and included within the sale price which means that any new purchaser will not need to spend any additional funds for some time. The business is overseen by the owner but managed on a daily basis with the help of 3 full-time and 8 part-time members of staff and for year ending 31st July 2025 they posted a turnover of £436,596 net of VAT. They serve traditional fish & chips, pies, patties, burgers, sausages, chicken, condiments and cold drinks.
We believe that there is further potential for a new purchaser to increase trade by opening on Sundays and by extending the current and relatively short opening times. They do not do deliveries, so joining the online delivery portals such as Just Eat & Deliveroo would most definitely boost the turnover as well. The business enjoys a strong reputation within the local community and beyond and as such has a high level of regular and repeat trade, along with plenty of passing trade. This is a superb opportunity to purchase an established business where all the hard work has been done, which is a great base to build upon and as such early viewing is highly recommended.
