Hilton Smythe are delighted to introduce to the market, Glasson Dock Village Store, a well- established and profitable concern. Originally founded in 2003 and under the careful stewardship of our client since inception in 2013, and is now genuinely offered for sale as our client wishes to move abroad. The principal business activities lie in the retail of convenience style goods including, newspapers and magazines, cigarettes, groceries, greetings cards and stationary, wines, beers and spirits, fruit and vegetables, frozen foods and ice cream. In addition to the sale of convenience items the business serves hot and cold homemade sandwiches on a breakfast and lunch menu, in addition to hot and cold drinks and associated snacks. The variety of products offered by the convenience store are very comprehensive, however we are advised that there may be some merit in diversifying into other ranges. In addition, the business may benefit from the addition of a national lottery terminal. This store is certainly one of the finest we have inspected of recent times and we would recommend that early viewing is essential to fully appreciate the business and location.
The business is currently owner run and managed.
