BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
Luxury Interiors, Gift & Fashion Retailer
with a prestigious site in one of the most highly desirable lifestyle locations in UK
Ref No: AH155
Location: Lake District
Asking Price: £10,000 plus Stock(circa £50,000)
Turner Butler has been appointed to bring to market this rare opportunity to acquire a growing, lucrative retail operation with prestigious premises in one of the most desirable lifestyle locations in the UK.
The business was set up by the vendors some 6 years ago as a luxury premier interiors business. The business has moved site to its current prestigious location over the last 18 months and it is enjoying impressive performance at time of going to market. As well as offering home interiors the owners have also broadened their offerings to encompass fashion plus gift retail.
They also offer Home Styling supplying bespoke curtains, blinds, colour plans etc. giving customers a highly personalised and individual service offering. This is proving to be very popular with their affluent client base.
The shop is a dealership for many in-demand interior brands ensuring strong footfall.

Expansion Potential
The business is still very young, yet dynamic and enjoying very strong growth. This trend is expected to continue and there are significant opportunities to expand the offering still further should a new owner so require as the demand is there. One such area is full interior design, another on-line marketing and sales.
The brand itself is growing and the model clearly works - it could easily be replicated to roll out more sites should a new owner have the vision and desire to do so. Alternatively it can continue to thrive as a “real” lifestyle business.

Market / Competition / Non-Competition Agreements
The business regularly places full page, high quality adverts in regional lifestyle magazines. The main website provides an improving platform for promoting the brand and for online sales – it scores well on Google searches. A database of selected, regular customers has been built up and is used for regular targeted mail campaigns. Social media channels including Facebook, Instagram and Google are all very active and increasingly generate leads and sales.
