The subject premises occupy an outstanding and highly visible trading position among other complementary independent operators on a high footfall parade situated opposite a popular local park in a good and densely populated residential area with excellent access to major road and motorway links (A629, A630, A631, A618, M18 junction 1 and M1 junctions 33 and 34 etc.) on the outskirts of the vibrant South Yorkshire town of Rotherham.

We are delighted to present this outstanding opportunity to acquire a thriving commercial proposition of uncommon quality and real further potential, which we are confident you will agree represents exceptional value.

This long established and highly regarded independent florist currently primarily conducts an extremely popular sales operation of a wide selection of premium-quality seasonal fresh flowers and arrangements for all occasions including beautiful hand-tied wedding bouquets, bespoke funeral tributes, corporate designs and gift baskets, with highly complementary range of luxury handmade chocolates also available.

“Forget Me Not” also provides a fast and efficient local and national delivery service with credit card payment options available and would naturally furnish any enthusiastic purchaser with ample scope for continued growth, not least with regard to possibly undertaking lucrative international relay agency delivery work and to operating significantly extended weekend hours in order to fully exploit year-round local and passing trade demand.

The business would also benefit by adopting a more vigorous marketing policy of its excellent existing products and services, both through its own informative dedicated website and to further development of its social media presence, in order to improve upon the already high levels of turnover it has achieved since being established in its present form in 1984 by the current proprietor, with the aid of a small team of three experienced and motivated staff who would be an asset to any purchaser, and we would strongly recommend the earliest possible viewing to avoid disappointment.
