CoGoGo is delighted to welcome to the market Whitehall Stores. The business was first established by our client in 1990. Our client has thoroughly enjoyed running the store in the area but is now looking to sell the business due to the desire to move abroad. The business runs as a busy convenience store selling a generous amount of products. Services include a Payzone, cash machine, parcel delivery point and the Lottery. The store stocks most convenience products such as cigarettes, newspapers, magazines, lager, wines, spirits, household goods, fresh food, frozen food, confectionary and much more. This is a well-presented store with fully stocked shelves; the owner has run the store to a high standard. We are advised the current turnover for the business is around £317,000 per annum with a gross profit of around 16%. The business is in a great location and receives a high amount of custom from passing trade. The car park allows customers to easily call in the store. There are several schools and a high amount of residential properties all within close proximity of the store. This allows for a generous amount of trade from repeat loyal custom. This is a fantastic bolt-on opportunity and is in a walk-in trading position. We highly advise early viewing to any purchaser who is interested in this trade.
