CoGoGo welcomes to the market Mr and Mrs C`s. The business was established by our client in 2015. The café has been a great success and in 2016 generated a turnover of £62,400. The owner is now looking to sell the business, due to the desire to relocate. The business runs as a café in the city centre of Wakefield. There is an excellent menu available, this includes jacket potatoes, toasties, cakes, plus hot and cold beverages. Our client has recently acquired an alcohol licence and sells a great selection of alcoholic drinks. There is potential to boost turnover is several ways. We feel that the purchaser could look to extend the seating area. On the lower floor, there is space to increase seating massively. Applying for a pavement licence would also allow for outdoor seating, perfect for the warmer summer months. Mr and Mrs C`s has only been open for a year, with further advertising and marketing the business could see an increase in custom. The business has a website, this is easy to use and looks presentable, this is complimentary to the Facebook page that our client has recently set up. Extending opening hours and by introducing bistro nights, could again further entice repeat loyal trade. Loyalty cards are also a great way to do this. Our client has run this business to a very high standard and has invested a generous amount of money and time. This is a turn-key opportunity that is not to be missed. CoGoGo highly advise early viewing to take in the full potential of the trade.
