Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this popular DIY store, which was established in 1978 and has been in our clients\' hands since 1984. The business is only now being offered to the market due to their wish to retire. Leadgate DIY boasts a turnover in the region of £280,000 per annum with a gross profit of 32%. The business occupies substantial, meticulously maintained, premises with 2 3-bedroom flats above, which could be used for owners\' accommodation or rented out to provide further income. There is scope to develop the business further as there is the internal configuration to increase the range of goods stocked. There is also the possibility of extending the opening hours and opening earlier to cater for trade customers and to develop trade accounts. We are advised there is no similar businesses in the area and little in the way of advertising, offering a new owner the potential to increase trade by introducing a modest marketing campaign. We feel this represents an ideal opportunity for a new owner to purchase an established and successful business with immense scope for future growth. Early discussions with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
