Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this popular Post Office, which was established in the 1960s and has been in our client's careful hands since 2000. The business is only now offered to the market due to our client's wish for career change. The premises are well-equipped to suit the trade with a large sales area and 3 Post Office positions. The business benefits from a high footfall from the surrounding area and boasts an excellent reputation, ensuring much repeat trade. There is a spacious 2-bedroom self-contained flat to the first floor which is included in the freehold purchase option only. We are advised that planning permission is in place to extend the shop, which could double the retail space. Our client currently offers Post Office activities along with additional sales of greeting cards and general convenience lines. The business trades 6 days a week and generates a turnover in the region of £20,800 with a gross profit of 25% and also receives a Post Office salary of £77,000 per annum. We feel the turnover could be further increased by extending the opening hours. The new owner could, if desired, extend the shop area, which would allow a larger range of products to be sold. This is an ideal opportunity to acquire an already popular Post Office with a 2-bedroom self-contained flat and huge scope for future development. Early negotiations with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
