A long-established and well-maintained fish & chip shop in a busy north Northamptonshire parade, turning over £5,000 to £5,400 a week on deliberately modest afternoon-and-evening hours. Reduced to £99,950 for a quick sale, with the current owners moving on to focus on other business interests. The combination of a settled local trade, a strong delivery channel and several hours of untouched daytime potential makes this a clear opportunity for a hands-on operator to lift takings without changing the fundamentals.
Trading figures:
The vendor advises weekly turnover in the region of £5,000 to £5,400, generated through a combination of walk-in trade, dine-in customers and deliveries. That figure is achieved on relatively modest hours — the shop does not open before mid-afternoon any day of the week — so the headroom for growth is concrete rather than theoretical: longer opening hours, a sharper marketing presence and expanded menu options are all available to a new owner without disturbing what already works.
Trade equipment:
The frying line is built around a Preston 3-pan range, supported by a comprehensive kit list that reflects the shop's mixed menu: a Casio till, an 8-burner grill, a kebab machine, an electric cutter, two bain-maries, an upright drinks fridge, two upright freezers, two salad fridges, two microwave ovens, two toasters, a dough mixer, a pizza oven, a food mixer, an upright fridge, a double-door fridge, a salad bar, a walk-in freezer, a chipper, a peeler and a CCTV system. Plenty of kitchen utensils, paraphernalia, shelving and storage are included throughout the shop.
Special remarks:
A rare chance to take on a long-established, locally trusted fish & chip shop in a well-populated residential catchment, with a settled walk-in trade and an established delivery channel already in place. The shop currently opens only from mid-afternoon, so a new owner has obvious levers to pull — lunchtime trading, particularly around school hours and weekends, plus a sharper online and social-media presence. The current owners are selling because their attention is needed elsewhere, and the price has been reduced to £99,950 to reflect a genuine motivation to move on. Inspection is invited.
