The business has been operated by the current vendors for over 4 years and is well established within Earl Shilton, having traded as a newsagent for over 35 years.
Due to health reasons this rare and exciting opportunity has now become available.

• Tobacco
• Confectionary
• Cold drinks
• Ice cream
• A wide range of gift cards
• Food
• Cleaning products
• Phone accessories
The business could easily be expanded by tweaking the convenience offering further, as well as obtaining a licence to sell alcohol and extend the opening hours to enable the store to trade to its full potential maximising profitability
