We are delighted to bring to market this exciting business opportunity. This established greetings card business originally began trading some 17 years ago from its current retail premises.
However, and mainly due to Covid restricting non-essential shops from trading the owners took advantage of the internet and during the last couple of years this successful business now trades not only from its outlet but created an online presence with the use of Amazon. Understandably this has dramatically increased its customer base and helped achieve excellent turnover (combined £345,000). The shop is open 6 days a week and has been trading 29 years.
We are not only offering the card and gift business from the retail premises but the online trading too. The business is mainly run by a husband and wife with the help of two members of staff who know the business like the back of their hand. The owners have kindly offered any successful purchaser a hand over period and early assistance to show them the ropes.
A new lease will be offered for around 10 years with a rent review at 5-year intervals. The rent for the premise is £13,800 per annum on a full repairing lease. It’s worth noting, the property was reroofed some 12 years ago and rewired approximately 10 years ago.
If you are looking for a change of career or always dreamed of owning your own business and possess entrepreneurial skills then this could be perfect for you.
Wadebridge town is only a short walk away with its pedestrianised centre, where shopping is still a pleasure. A range of national retailers sit alongside an eclectic mix of local independent shops and a selection of cafés, pubs and restaurants plus an array of supermarkets at the top of West Hill.
Wadebridge is the perfect place from which to explore the North Cornish countryside as well as being the gateway to the beautiful scenery and stunning beaches of Rock and Polzeath. The famous Camel Trail, a walk and cycle path that has replaced the old railway tracks from Bodmin to Padstow, runs through the town. You'll find attractive scenery and plenty of wildlife to be enjoyed along this riverside trail, a very pleasant, traffic free way to walk or cycle to Padstow and the coast, or inland through wooded valleys to Bodmin and the moor.
