Cornwall, UK
Asking Price:
£149,000
Turnover:
£1,000,000
Net Profit:
£80,000

Oakhouse Foods is one of the leading providers of quality frozen meals and desserts, delivered direct to the customers’ home. Over 65s account for nearly a fifth of the UK population and are the fastest growing consumer group. An ageing population equals an increase in age-related conditions requiring help on a daily basis and an increase in the demand for services to help the ageing population which, in turn, increases the demand for private provisions.
To facilitate the explosive growth, the home care and related services markets are currently estimated at £5.2 billion and are only going to grow to keep up with the unprecedented demand.

Oakhouse Foods has been established for over 25 years and operates a proven franchise business model which is loved by customers for its extensive range of quality food and friendly, personal service.

Now owned by the global Kerry Group, a leader in the global food industry with a turnover in excess of €6bn, Oakhouse Foods is benefitting from an increase in investment, expertise and support from a global taste & nutrition expert.

Notes from the current franchisee:
This is a rare opportunity to buy a new franchise area from an established franchisee in Cornwall. You will be taking on existing customers from an established location with the opportunity to grow the customer base even further. This is an area of the country with a high proportion of our target audience (over 65) and is an ever growing market. Premises and assets would need to be purchased separately, this would be advised by Head Office.

Property Information

Location:

The franchise is located in Cornwall. The territory covers TR, PL and some TQ and EX post codes.

Premises Details:

This franchise is Premises/Vans based.
Please note, additional finance will be required for vans, stock and equipment

Business Operation

Expansion Potential:

The potential turnover from this franchise is at least £1m (possibly higher) based on just a 2% penetration of the available market in this area. You will get out what you put in; hard work = results & increased turnover.

Competition / Market:

Our main competition is Wiltshire Farm Foods but the market potential is more than big enough for both companies to operate successfully within.

Reasons for selling:

As this territory has successfully expanded the need has arisen to split the territory into two separate regions.

Trading hours:

5 Days per week 8 Hrs per day. The operation runs from 8am - 6pm although the Drivers may well start earlier and finish earlier depending on the rounds. We are open all bank holidays excluding Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Years Day.

Employees:
Based on our experience so far we would recommend 2 x Drivers 2 x Telesales to start with 1x Picker working 3hrs per day (more may be needed as you increase your turnover.)
Years established:
Oakhouse Foods (previously Home Farm Foods) has been established for 25 years
