The business is presently run by the vendor with support from one part-time member of staff. This structure may suit an owner-operator, or a buyer looking to introduce additional staffing to extend trading hours and increase capacity.
The asking price includes the benefit of a secure, renewable lease, goodwill, and fixtures and fittings. Stock is available at valuation and is estimated at approximately ?35,000.
