Freehold Fish & Chip Takeaway Located in Chaddesden, Derby

Business Description
Veritas Business Sales are delighted to present this well established Freehold Fish & Chip Takeaway which is located in Chaddesden, Derby. Originally founded in 1960, the business has been carefully managed by the current owner since 1997. He is now offering the business & property for sale due to health issues and feels the time is right to enjoy a well deserved retirement. Throughout his ownership, significant investments have been made in new equipment, as well as fixtures and fittings, all of which are fully paid for and included in the sale price which is an excellent advantage for any new purchaser as no immediate additional spending will be required. The owner has constructed a substantial 25 meter extension at the back of the property, designed as a restaurant dining space and ready for use or potential for alternative use. Chaddesden Fish Bar owner operated with the support of one part time staff member and generates an average weekly turnover of £3,500 which is entirely walk-in trade. Detailed accounting information will be provided upon request. The takeaway offers a wide variety of traditional fish and chips, kebabs, sausages, burgers, southern fried chicken, vegetarian options, condiments, and soft drinks.
We believe there is room to boost business by extending the current opening hours and the joining online delivery platforms such as Just Eat. The business has an excellent reputation within the local community and beyond and benefits from a high level of repeat and regular trade. The upstairs flat features two bedrooms, a lounge, kitchen, and bathroom, currently rented for £850 per calendar month, providing an additional income stream. The property sits on a spacious plot of land, and the newly built restaurant extension offers even more potential. This is a unique opportunity to acquire an established business which is a great base to build upon, is priced to sell and as such early viewing is highly recommended.
