The subject premises occupy a highly visible trading position among other independent operators in the historic market town of Poulton-le-Fylde, which lies with excellent access to major road and motorway links (A585, A586 and M55 junction 3 etc.) and approximately 5 miles from Blackpool town centre, in the Fylde district of Lancashire.

We are delighted to present this excellent opportunity to acquire a thriving commercial proposition of real quality and outstanding future possibilities, which we are confident you will agree represents genuine value.

This very well established laundry currently primarily conducts an extremely useful, popular and highly efficient, same-day dry cleaning operation for purposes ranging from general clothing and linen to curtains, upholstery and wedding dresses.

The laundry is also equipped to high industry specifications to undertake a highly complementary range of associated washing, drying and ironing services, with a popular collection and delivery service also available.

“Carleton Dry Cleaners” provides its services for a long-standing and still-expanding repeat and referral client base drawn from throughout a wide surrounding catchment area and would naturally furnish any enthusiastic purchaser with considerable scope for continued growth, not least with regard to possible investment in additional staff and to operating extended weekend hours in order to exploit the full potential capacity of its facilities.

The business would also benefit greatly by adopting a far more vigorous marketing policy of its excellent existing services, particularly with reference to the possible introduction of online advertising and to further development of its social media presence, in order to improve upon the already very respectable levels of turnover it is achieving in the hands of the current proprietor, with the aid only of a small, experienced and motivated team of two part-time staff who would be an asset to any purchaser.

Alternatively, this versatile proposition would most certainly appeal to some similar-sized or larger allied enterprise looking to significantly increase its existing share of the professional laundry solutions services market by the acquisition of dynamic and extremely well located additional independent outlet with a valuable local name and a long established client base, and we would strongly urge any genuine interested parties to pursue the earliest possible enquiries.
