Hilton Smythe is delighted to welcome to the market this popular and busy plant, gift and accessories shop which is superbly situated in the increasingly sought after and salubrious area of Wapping Wharf in Bristol.

Bush Bristol was founded by the current owner when she identified a gap in the market. The business has been a real labour of love for her accruing a fantastic reputation along with an impressive number of regular customers.

This lovely business is now being sold, albeit reluctantly and with a heavy heart only due to the vendors recent move to Devon. She is keen to see her beloved plant company pass to an ambitious and entrepreneurial new owner(s) who can take this already thriving business to the next level.

Bush Bristol sells a range of house plants and dried flowers along with a range of accessories including;

  • Plant foods
  • Plant pot scrubbing brushes
  • Watering cans
  • Plant stakes
  • Secateurs and sharpening stones
  • Trowels
  • Plant soils and peats
Additionally the business offers an ‘Appreciation Gifts’ service where a customer can send clients, colleagues or family a plant and a pot to bring a little cheer to their home or workspace.

The sale will include the company website (bushbristol.co.uk) and Facebook and the business enjoys great visibility on the internet.
