Location
Busy prime site in the City with a heavy footfall of passing trade from the many surrounding offices in the district.
Business
A3 Café and Take Away currently focusing on the Take Away trade which represents the majority of the takings. The owners have created a small amount of seating with a view to improving the 'eat in' element of the business. The business has been established on this site since 2002 having benefitted from the vast experience in this field by the current owners. The business has built up a fine reputation for serving high quality food at reasonable prices, serving both hot and cold ready made and made to order menus with a capacity to serve up to 2,500 customers per day.
A fully operational website is included in the sale providing information about the company, contact information and available menus.
The business is operated totally under management with a wage bill of c£83,000 per annum.
Turnover for year ending February 2010 c£438,000 working on a gross profit of c40%. This GP is considerably lower than would be expected for this type of business which would typically work on c65%. At its height the business was achieving in the region of £800,000 per annum and would certainly benefit from being owner operated.
