Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this village Post Office, which was established in 1900 and which has been in our client's careful hands since 1982. The business is only now offered to the market due to our client's wish to retire. The Post Office trades 6 days a week generating a retail turnover in the region of £7,000 per annum with a gross profit of 80% and has a Post Office salary of £21,000. Our client offers general Post Office services, greeting cards, stationery, gas canisters and has recently started a Post Office outreach service to outlying and remote areas. We feel there is huge potential to increase turnover by extending the range of products offered. The business has an excellent reputation, which it has gained over a century of trading. The premises boast a vacant shop, 2 workshops and 5-bedroom accommodation with a lounge, dining room, kitchen and a bathroom. We feel that they could be let out to generate additional income. This is an ideal opportunity to acquire a village Post Office with 5-bedroom owners' accommodation and huge scope for future development. Early negotiations with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
