A rare opportunity to acquire Bangers Natural Café & Bistro, a distinctive, fully fitted and operational café, restaurant, takeaway and drive-through business currently situated in Littlehampton, approximately four miles from Arundel.
The website is:-https://www.bangersnaturalcafe.co.uk/
A particularly unusual feature of this opportunity is that the café/restaurant unit itself is owned by the vendors and forms part of the sale. The land on which it is currently situated is leasehold.
This potentially gives an incoming purchaser two options: subject to the relevant lease arrangements, they may continue operating Bangers from its established Littlehampton location, or alternatively the unit is capable of being relocated to another suitable site, subject to the necessary planning, licensing, utility and other consents.
For a purchaser able to relocate the unit onto their own suitable land, this could ultimately remove the need for the existing land lease altogether.
Substantial Investment – Ready to Operate
Bangers has been created from the ground up following approximately £250,000 of investment over the past two years.
The sale includes the owner-owned café/restaurant unit together with an extensive inventory of commercial catering equipment, fixtures and fittings.
The operation has been designed and fitted as a complete hospitality business, providing an incoming owner with the opportunity to acquire the infrastructure required to begin operating without the considerable cost, time and disruption involved in creating and fitting out a comparable business from scratch.
At its current location, Bangers provides approximately 72 covers – 48 inside and 24 outside – together with abundant customer parking and a dedicated drive-through facility.
Established Trading Business With Considerable Untapped Potential
One of the key opportunities for an incoming owner is the business's very restricted current trading hours.
Bangers has predominantly operated for only around five hours per day, approximately 9am–2pm, concentrating almost entirely on breakfast and lunchtime trade.
Despite these restricted hours, the business has generated approximately £121,000 turnover over the last 12 months.
Bangers has established a loyal local customer following and an excellent reputation for freshly prepared food using quality ingredients, supported by strong customer reviews.
The current owners have not fully exploited the potential for extended opening hours, earlier breakfast and commuter trade, afternoon service, evening restaurant trading, drive-through and takeaway sales, online ordering and delivery, outside catering, private functions, supper clubs and other events.
The business currently operates without an alcohol licence and permits customers to bring their own alcohol. Subject to obtaining the appropriate licence, alcohol sales could provide a further potential revenue stream.
Opportunity for an Owner-Operator, Family Business or Existing Hospitality Group
The current owners have successfully created and established the Bangers concept but have largely operated the business themselves rather than with the structure of a larger family-run or management-led hospitality operation.
Their time has therefore been concentrated primarily on the day-to-day operation of the café rather than marketing, extended trading and development of the additional revenue opportunities available.
The opportunity could particularly suit an experienced chef/operator, couple or family-run hospitality team.
It may equally appeal to an established hospitality or catering company looking for an additional trading location, or potentially to a purchaser seeking a fully fitted relocatable catering operation for use on another suitable site.
The owners are selling due to changing personal circumstances and a desire to step away from the day-to-day commitment of the business.
A reasonable handover period can be provided.
The business is offered on a cash-free/debt-free basis.
Asking Price: £180,000
