A high-turnover Grade II listed freehold fish & chip takeaway and 47-cover restaurant in a popular Pembrokeshire market town, in the same hands for 24 years and refurbished to top specification around seven years ago. Audited accounts back the trading story, and two self-contained flats above add a further £18,500 a year in rental income. Genuinely offered after a long ownership due to other business commitments — a rare opportunity at this calibre.
Trading figures:
The business trades just eleven months of the year and still produces excellent audited accounts, which will be made available to seriously interested parties. On top of the shop's takings, the two self-contained flats above generate a further £18,500 a year in rental income. The current wage bill is high — a capable family team prepared to put their own hours in across the counter and the kitchen could take a meaningful chunk out of staff costs and lift the bottom line accordingly.
Trade equipment:
The headline item is the three-pan Preston & Thomas fluted-front counter range in the takeaway section. Beyond that, the shop is superbly fitted throughout and fully equipped with all the normal trade items associated with a high-turnover business of this calibre. A complete inventory of trade equipment, fixtures and fittings will be made available to interested parties at a later date.
Special remarks:
After 24 years of ownership, this first-class substantial freehold concern is offered for sale due to other business commitments. The shop and the two flats are in top condition throughout, having had a considerable sum spent on upgrading them — something that will be immediately evident on viewing — so the buyer takes over with no additional outlay required. Beyond the high audited turnover of the fish & chip business itself, the £18,500 of annual rental income from the flats sits alongside it as a separate, established revenue stream. For a capable family team there is real scope to reduce the high wage structure, extend the current trading pattern, and introduce a home delivery service. Businesses of this calibre rarely come to the market.
