My Own Business are delighted to present this established commercial proposition of uncommon size, quality and further potential, which we are confident you will agree represents exceptional value.

This long established store is currently primarily ‘one stop’ of market-leading fresh and frozen foods, toys, treats and associated accessories.

The store also stocks a highly complementary range of premium quality angling and darts equipment and ancillary supplies, all displayed to its very best advantage in bright, spacious and attractively appointed interconnecting showroom areas.

“Acomb Pets” is additionally equipped to high industry specifications to undertake bespoke pet grooming services in its purpose-built in-store grooming parlour and operates from premises of a size which would naturally furnish any enthusiastic purchaser with considerable scope for continued growth, not least with regard to the possible provision of local delivery services, particularly for elderly customers in outlying areas, and to the possible introduction of Sunday trading in order to fully exploit year-round local and passing trade demand.

The business would also benefit greatly by adopting a far more vigorous marketing policy of its excellent existing products and services, particularly with reference to the possible introduction of online advertising and ordering and to further development of its social media presence, in order to improve upon the already impressive 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 one full-time and two part-time staff who would be an asset to any purchaser, and we would strongly recommend the earliest possible viewing to avoid disappointment.
