CoGoGo is delighted to welcome to the market Daves Pet Supplies. This business was originally established in 1985 but was only taken over by our client in 1991. Our client has thoroughly enjoyed running the store, but is now reluctantly looking to sell due to the desire to take a well-deserved retirement. The pet store sells a generous amount of stock for all kinds of pets. They offer general pet supplies, food and accessories, stocking some well-known brands such as, Wagg, Pedigree, Pointer, Felix and more. The current turnover if an advised £56,000 with a gross profit of 43%. This is good but we believe this could be massively increased. Some ways in which the new owner could do this is to look at increasing opening hours. The store is currently closed 2 days a week missing some vital trade. Our client currently does not stock live animals, this could also be something the purchaser can look into to boost income. A website would also advertise the store and products on offer, this would hopefully attract new custom. This is a well-established business, well known in the local area. Therefore the store receives a high amount of loyal repeat trade. This business would be a perfect opportunity for a purchaser looking for a successful store. The store is well priced and comes with low overhead costs. CoGoGo highly advises early viewing to avoid missing out on this brilliant well established business.
