CoGoGo is delighted to welcome to the market this well-established and busy farm shop, restaurant and caravan park business, ideally located within the quaint village of East Kirkby, Lincolnshire. The business was established by our clients in 1997 and is only now being offered to the market due to our clients’ desire for a well-deserved retirement. The business operates 7 days per week and generates an excellent turnover, with a good gross profit. Our client will produce the accounts at the viewing appointment Our clients offer a variety of services. The farm shop stocks the finest local produce from Lincolnshire farms including fruit and vegetables, fresh local meats, free range eggs, locally milled flour, fresh and matured local cheese and homemade preserves. The café/restaurant offers traditional home-cooked food, set within a relaxing and comfortable atmosphere, including full English breakfasts, sandwiches, soups, freshly cooked bread, Sunday roasts, hot snacks, breakfasts, lunch and dinner, as well as a selection of hot and cold beverages. The three-bedroom bungalow is very spacious and decorated to a very high standard throughout making it a fantastic family home and includes a large lounge/diner, kitchen, office area, conservatory, three bedrooms and a bathroom. The small but secluded caravan park offers a relaxing place for a holiday in the Lincolnshire Wolds, nestled within an acre of land. The campsite features electric hook up points, toilet and shower facilities, chemical disposal facilities, a washing up area, tourer storage facilities, as well as the on-site shop and restaurant. The business has built up an excellent reputation within the area for the very high quality of the goods and services offered, which has resulted in a very loyal client base, with a high volume of repeat trade and word of mouth recommendations. We feel there is scope to increase the turnover by extending the opening hours of the shop and restaurant, perhaps by opening the restaurant later. A new owner could also embark on a modest marketing campaign to highlight the excellent services offered. The business already has an informative website in place to advertise the business. This is an excellent opportunity for a new owner, perhaps a husband and wife team, to take this already thriving business to the next level; therefore, early viewing must come highly recommended to avoid disappointment.
