Outside 5 In 1 Catering Business In Ashford For Sale

Ashford, Kent, UK
Asking Price:
£190,000 Furniture / Fixtures included
Turnover:
£100K - £200K
Net Profit:
£50K - £100K

After 25 years in the business, we are now putting up our outside, hot food, bar and sweet treat business for sale.

Apart from the equipment and units mentioned below, we have years of ongoing bookings to pass onto any new owner from Berkshire to Brighton.

We also turn down a great deal of work now as we are winding down. So the potential for growth using our established clientele and growing new links is amazing.

With bags of potential we are offering a professionally built modern streetfood VW Crafter unit which offers high volume output for busy events. With less than 25K on the clock this vehicle is super reliable. The unit has been built with a built in silent generator, so can function in any environment.

The star of our show however, is our 1977 VW Camper conversion.
This has been built to be a bar, but is equally at home serving hot food (BOH pop up kitchen) or sweet treats.
Along with private parties, weddings and eventing, this unit is also very popular with corporate and celeb clients.

To enhance your turnover, two original 1960 working trikes are part of the sale.
They have been used for icecream (of course) Pimms, Champagne, Mojitos and even a general bar at many events, parties and weddings.
Again, these originals do not require electricity so are flexible in terms of location.

For space limited events, two pop-up Farmer's Market style outlets are part of the sale.
They come with rigid frontage and a full LPG kitchen.
This includes:
1x110cm gas griddle
1x 95cm gas griddle
1x table top twin pot deep fryer
1x100cm electric griddle
1x90cm electric griddle
1x large double table top deep fat fryer.
Add to this a variety of electric and candle style baines marie, tables etc and you have all you need to set up.

Finally, all supporting equipment including deep freezers, catering utensils, bar equipment and even a trailer etc are part of the sale.

There is a complete, multi facetted business with oodles of potential for multiple bookings throughout the year ready to go!

This concern will fast track you into the outside catering world which usually take five years to establish.
Why look at franchises when you can have something thats 100% your own!?

So much more to say but please be aware that we are selling as an ingoing business and won't sell units separately.
Please enquire for more info.
