Meridian Business Sales are delighted to offer to the market this well established and equipped aquatic and reptile business that has been in the careful hands of our clients since 1999 and is only now being offered to the market due to our clients desire to take a well earned retirement. Since our client took ownership of the business they have embarked on a full refurbishment program to all areas of the business culminating in a true walk-in and trade business. Our clients have continually improved and updated the business by offering new and existing income streams such as the introduction of reptiles and aquatic plants both of which have proved popular and profitable to the clientele. Our clients inform us that the current turnover is £80,970 pa with a gross margin of 43%. This is derived from the sale of all this aquatic to include tanks, pumps, fish, plants and more recently reptiles. There is an excellent opportunity to incorporate or diversify to general pet supplies, this would mean the business would be the sole independant pet suppliers in the town centre with its own car parking. The business enjoys a strong local reputation and as such has high levels of loyalty and repeat trade. Meridian Business Sales recommends early viewing to fully appreciate the quality and growth potential of this business.
