Premises Details:

This is a long established and reputable butcher which operated as George Payne for 30 years before being acquired by the current owner, who managed the shop around 6 years ago until Mr Payne retired.

The premises are laid out to assist both customer service and efficiency and provide a waiting and service space at the front with a visual prep area behind the counter and to the rear. The fit out is recent and modern to include a large service counter with high spec touch screen scales which are linked to the tills. The scales incorporate customer facing LED displays which advertise a range of stocked products.

The business has a loyal and regular customer base and the shop is well known for its home-made sausages, burgers, ready-made meals and dry aged beef steaks.

To the rear of the shop there is a walk-in chiller and another external chiller with a separate smoker room which produces smoked bacon and gammons. The average spend is high and the shop also offers a range of quality condiments, hand-made sauces and local organic eggs.

Trading hours are shorter by choice with plenty of scope to extend. A local delivery service has proved very popular and there is also a busy phone and collect service too. Increased social media presence and online ordering would benefit the business.
