Ref.AF161
Location London SE4
Asking Price £ 180,000
This traditional family butchers has been established over 100 years, and offers good old fashioned service to its many customers. Under its current ownership for twenty five years the store sells fresh British free range meat, fresh fish plus fruit and vegatables and receives excellent support from local residents. This traditional butcher’s is run at present by our client, who has over the years maintained and developed an excellent reputation and high degree of goodwill.

The business has an excellent reputation where the takings speak for themselves. Due to ill health the current owner can only open three days per week, and yet despit this still shows excellent net profits. This opportunity would present a truly outstanding opening for anyone with an appropriate trade background who could open throughout the week, this could certainly see the turnover and profit increase substantially.

Expansion Potential
Due to personal illness the current owner can only open three days per week, although the clientele have proven to be very loyal, the business as a whole would reflect huge growth to both turnover and net profits if it were open a full week.

Market / Competition / Non-Competition Agreements
Very little advertising has been done, traded very much on reputation and loyalty.
