BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
 
An unusual opportunity to acquire a very long established (over 30 years), well-presented, spacious and modern, high turnover Newsagent, Convenience Store & recently granted Off License (October 2007), with the additional benefit of two bedroom family accommodation, occupying a quite superb, enviable main road trading position within the popular and bustling Sheffield village/suburb of Woodhouse Mill.

The business retails an extensive range of counter news and magazines with seven a.m. and four p.m. news delivery rounds to the local area, and additionally offers a wide selection of convenience goods, including tinned foods, pet foods, tobacco, confectionery, pre-packed sandwiches, dairy products, fresh bread, household goods, cards & gifts etc. The premises have the added benefit of the Payzone facility on site, and the business is a National Lottery agent.

Additionally, though the business has been granted a license to retail wines, beers and spirits between 5am and 10pm each day, due to their intended sale of the business our clients have not yet introduced alcohol products into their range. This is clearly an area of very significant potential for the new owners of the business.

‘Jo-Ann’s’ is an excellent, profitable, high turnover business, extremely well known in the local area, with a loyal and constantly increasing client base, now offered for sale at a very realistic asking price by our clients due to their family commitments, presenting an excellent, genuine opportunity for significant further development by the hands-on and enthusiastic new owner/operators.
