Freehold Post Office & Stores In Coventry West Midlands For Sale

Bag a Business is delighted to offer to the market this extremely profitable post office and convenience store, located in the busy Coventry suburb of Willenhall. The business has been under the careful ownership of our client since 1998 and is only now being placed onto the market due to our client's wish to retire. The business has an exceptionally high turnover of £515,493 with a gross profit of £83,237 and a high net profit of £56,348. Trade is derived from its healthy post office salary as well as the sale of convenience goods. The business has a number of attractive points that draws customers to the store, however of particular note is the extensive free car parking, lottery sales and its convenient location close to the local population. The business has recently been run at a pace to suit our client's lifestyle, however when the business traded under the Londis banner, and operated longer opening hours, trade peaked at a weekly turnover of £18,000. This is an excellent base for a new owner to build upon, by perhaps extending opening hours, further selling and promotion of post office services and leaflet drops.
