The subject premises occupy an outstanding and highly visible trading position among numerous other complementary independent operators on the busy main central commercial High street of the vibrant and densely populated residential satellite town of Johnstone, which lies with excellent access both to major road and motorway links (A737, A761 and M8 junction 29 etc.) and to the nearby town of Paisley (approximately 3 miles) on the outskirts of Glasgow, in the Renfrewshire region of the West Central Lowlands of Scotland.

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

This long established community store currently primarily conducts a useful and popular retail operation of a wide selection of traditional over-the-counter news, confectionery and tobacco lines displayed to its very best advantage in a bright, welcoming and secure customer service area.

“The Johnstone Newsagent” also stocks an excellent choice of premium quality greetings cards, gift ideas, toys, modelling kits, soft drinks and associated sundries and would naturally furnish any enthusiastic purchaser with considerable scope for continued growth, not least with regard to possible expansion into the provision of local delivery services, particularly for elderly customers in outlying areas.

The business would also benefit greatly by operating hugely extended retail hours in order to improve upon the already high levels of turnover it has achieved in the course of some twenty-four successful years’ trading in the hands of the current proprietor, with the aid of just one experienced and motivated full-time shop assistant who would be an asset to any purchaser, and we would strongly recommend the earliest possible viewing to avoid disappointment.

These well fitted and maintained leasehold terraced parade premises provide excellent and highly functional internal business accommodation, which briefly comprises an inviting, aluminium-and-glazed, double-fronted public entrance directly off the High Street into the main, bright, good-sized and welcoming, open-plan retail sales and customer service area with suspended ceiling, diffused fluorescent lighting and feature chequered tiled flooring throughout for easy cleaning.

The main public area houses a full range of well maintained, fixed and freestanding, purpose-built display furniture and shelving, in addition to extensive periodical and greetings cards racking, a large, glass-fronted and refrigerated soft drinks display unit, a photocopying machine and a large, fully fitted and glazed display point-of-sale counter with confectionery and sundry displays, tobacco gantry and electronic till point etc.

Further ancillary internal business accommodation consists of a good-sized general storeroom, together with all the usual washroom/WC facilities.

The premises also enjoy the added security benefit of a full alarm system.

Externally:

To the exterior the premises are well signed and presented and afford extensive and inviting, double-fronted display window space beneath a liveried canopy onto a busy town centre commercial High Street, with unrestricted customer parking available locally.
