THE BUSINESS/OPPORTUNITY:

La Piccola was established in December 2023, after the premises which had previously traded as a dessert parlour were completely refurbished by our client to create the stunning and stylish premises that exist today.

The business is not currently trading however the business had built up a fantastic reputation for their artisan, Neopolitan style pizzas, which resulted in them winning the award for Best Pizzeria in Scotland, as well as runner up for Best Newcomer, at the Italian Awards in 2024. They also served a good selection of pastas, breads and Italian starters, as well as sides, drinks & desserts.

The business enjoyed a loyal and regular clientele, mainly for takeaway and delivery, derived predominantly from Bothwell itself and the surrounding areas of Uddingston & Hamilton, but also drew trade from further afield due to their strong reputation.

This sale represents a tremendous opportunity for a new incoming owner to take on these immaculately fitted premises at a fraction of the fit out cost.
