CoGoGo is delighted to welcome to the market the Play Farm, a children’s play centre, which is ideally located within the town of Cheltenham, Gloucestershire. The business was originally established in 2010 and has been in our client’s careful ownership since 2014. Only now is the business being offered to the market due to our client’s other business interests. The business currently operates 7 days per week and generates an excellent turnover in the region of £364,000 per annum, with a gross profit of approximately 52%. The Play Farm is a themed play centre for children aged 0-12 years of age, with multi-tiered play structure, providing a safe, secure and stimulating play environment, with dedicated play zones for babies, toddlers and juniors. The play centre also offers party options and can cater for up to 200 guests, with an adjoining party room, which can be incorporated into a meeting room or disco room. There is also a café with covers for approximately 105, which offers a comfortable, warm and inviting environment, offering very high quality food and beverages. We feel there is scope to increase the turnover by extending the opening hours, especially at the weekend. A new owner could also embark on a modest marketing campaign, as our client has done local radio and press advertising. The business already has an excellent and very informative website in place to promote the business at www.playfarm.co.uk. This is an excellent opportunity for a new owner, perhaps a husband and wife team or partnership to acquire a very busy and lucrative business, therefore early discussions with CoGoGo must come highly recommended to avoid disappointment.
