The business is registered to and operates from this store, operating as both a shop in the front end and a workshop in the back end.
As such, expansion within the current premises is not feasible. However, it would not be difficult to relocate the business if the new owners wished to do so.
Capacity-wise the store requires a minimum of two workers to keep the business operational. with at least one in the front and back end respectively. With more than two employees present though, operations are more efficient.
