Established for over 40 years, and having been in the hands
of our client for 5 years, the business provides a vital Post Office counter
service to local residents, and also sells a full range of convenience goods,
alcohol and tobacco.
Well located, and offering off road parking, the business
offered plenty of scope for development. The vendor, wishing to exit the
business to focus on other business interests, was pleased with the high levels
of interest achieved by Knightsbridge, including 4 offers and 15 viewings.
The
buyers, Mr and Mrs Pratt, were keen to take advantage of the superb trading
position and low rent, and in a sale handled by senior negotiator Leanne
Boulding of Knightsbridge, they acquired the business in November 2012,
intending to work in the business on a full time basis. Leanne would like to
wish both parties good luck in their future ventures.
