CoGoGo welcomes a fantastic opportunity to take over Gold River, a long-established and well-known traditional fish & chip takeaway occupying a prominent trading position on Byron Road in Chelmsford.
Established for over 30 years, Gold River has built an excellent local reputation and benefits from a loyal customer base, strong online feedback and an established takeaway and delivery presence.
The business is currently operated by Gold River Fish and Chips Limited and has been in the present ownership for approximately one year. The owner is now offering the business for sale due to other business interests.
