Leasehold Traditional Fish & Chip Takeaway Located in Bakewell. Trades only 24 hours per week. Fully fitted & newly refurbished. Space for a first-floor restaurant.
Veritas Business Sales is privileged to offer to the market this delightful Fish & Chip takeaway located in the heart of Bakewell. The business was established 4 years ago and has been in careful hands of the current owner for the last 12 months, but due to a recent unforeseen illness, he must reluctantly sell this fantastic business.
There has been significant investment made to the premises, including total refurbishment, which is estimated at over £100k. All the equipment was purchased as new, and some of the equipment is still under warranty.
The equipment, along with fixtures & fittings, which are all bought and paid for, is included in the sale price, which is a huge plus for any new purchaser as additional funds will not need to be spent for some time. The first floor space has been left as a shell, and new owners can utilise the space for a studio apartment (kitchen and lounge area) or, alternatively, a new (24)-cover restaurant.
Catch 32 is owned and operated with the help of 2 part-time staff members and has an average weekly turnover of circa £5,500 on just 24 hours of trading. They serve a fine range of traditional fish & chips, along with fish cakes, battered sausage, chicken nuggets, Whitby Scampi, Yorkshire Fish Cakes, condiments, and cold drinks. Approximately 80% of the trade is walk-in, with the remaining 20% via their website on click and collect.
We believe that there is further potential to increase trade, should you wish, by extending the current opening times, increasing the food offering, and joining other online delivery portals such as Just Eat.
The business has built a strong reputation within the local community and beyond and, as such, has a high level of regular and repeat trade along with plenty of passing tourist trade. This is a great opportunity to purchase an established, high-turnover business, which is a great base to build upon, and as such, early viewing is highly recommended as this is one not to be missed.
