Business Description
Veritas Business Sales are privileged to offer to the market this respected Sandwich Bar & Coffee House which is located in Gloucester city centre. The business has been established for 26 years and has been in the careful hands of our clients since May 2020. They are now offering the business for sale due to other pressing work commitments need their attention.
Since ownership there has been continual investment in new equipment along with fixtures & fittings which are all bought and paid for and included within the sale price which is a huge plus for any new purchaser as additional funds will not need to be spent for some time. The Knobbly Cob is overseen by the owners but managed on a daily basis by a manager with over 20 year experience and a team of 2 full time and 4 part time members of staff. (One of the owners is a full time catering manager who will not be staying on). For their first trading year they turned over £254,529 with a GP of £210,650 (83%) which produces a decent net profit for an owner operator. They serving a fine range freshly cut sandwiches, baguettes, ciabattas, sub rolls, jacket potatoes, salad boxes, hot daily specials, cakes, crisps, confectionery. All can be served with cold drinks, teas and specialist coffees. Fayre can be enjoyed inside, taken away or delivered via the on-line delivery portals, Just Eat, Uber Eats and Deliveroo. They also offer outside catering & buffets for private functions and office meetings.
We believe that an owner operator at the helm would increase revenue along with extending the current opening times. The business has built a strong reputation within the local community and beyond for serving quality food and as such has a high level of regular and repeat trade. This is a superb opportunity to purchase an established business with further potential which is a great base to build upon and as such early viewing is highly recommended as this gem is not to be missed.

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
