Phoenix Traders (UK) Limited is being sold as a relocatable business. The business is currently based in Birmingham but could feasibly be run from anywhere in the UK, indeed the World.
Birmingham is the second most populous city in the UK, with an estimated population of 1,137,100 as of 2017 and is the cultural, social financial and commercial centre of the Midlands.
In recent years, many parts of Birmingham have been transformed, with the redevelopment of the Bullring Shopping Centre and regeneration of old industrial areas such as Brindley Place, The Mailbox and the International Convention Centre. Old streets, buildings and canals have been restored, the pedestrian subways have been removed and the inner ring road has been rationalised. The city will serve as the host of the 2022 Commonwealth Games.
Partly due to its central location, Birmingham is a major transport hub on the motorway, rail and canal networks. The city is served by the M5, M6, M40 and M42 motorways and possibly the most well known motorway junction in the UK: Spaghetti Junction. The M6 passes through the city on the Bromford Viaduct, which at 3.5 miles is the longest bridge in the UK.
Birmingham New Street is the busiest railway station in the UK outside London. It is the National hub for Cross Country, the most extensive long-distance train network in Britain and a major destination for Virgin Trains. Local and regional services are operated from all of Birmingham’s stations by West Midlands Trains.
Bus routes are mainly operated by National Express West Midlands which accounts for over 80% Of all bus journeys in Birmingham.

Phoenix Traders (UK) Limited is being sold as a relocatable business so a new owner would need some sort of provision for holding stock. The business was in the process of moving to new premises prior to the decision to sell and has been operating temporarily out of a ‘Safestore’ self storage depot and this has proved to be surprisingly successful.
The sale will include computers and a bespoke software package and office furniture can be included if required.
