Business Description
Veritas Business Sales offer to the market this well established Freehold Post Office, Off Licence & Convenience Store in Handsworth Wood, Birmingham. The property benefits from a self-contained flat with 3 bedrooms, kitchen/diner and bathroom on the first floor. The business has been established for many years and run by the current owners for 27 years and they are now looking to enjoy a well deserved RETIREMENT.
The business premises have been extended and much improved by the current owners by the addition of an off licence and a well maintained modern interior. The rear of the property has a tarmacked forecourt and a good size hard-standing rear garden and patio area with a rear access road, therefore providing potential for further expansion to increase turnover. Coopers Road Post Office is owner operated and comes with no staffing liabilities for year ending 31st March 2024 and posted an annual turnover of £256,647. They retail newspapers, magazines, greeting cards, stationery, groceries, frozen foods, pet foods, household goods, dairy products, confectionary, cold drinks, alcohol and beers and a photocopy service. In addition to the shop sales, the post office produces an annually increasing remuneration of £27,000-£30,000 per annum. The accommodation above can either be utilised as living accommodation for potential purchasers or rented out to generate a further income.
We believe there is potential to increase turnover by extending the current floor space into the rear, increase the current opening times, especially on Sundays and the addition of fresh green grocery products. The current business owners have built a strong reputation within the local community and as such have a high level of regular and repeat trade. This is a superb opportunity to purchase a turnkey successful business but with further opportunity for expansion. We highly recommend an early viewing for this excellent business.
