Sunderland
£25,000 (Leasehold)
REF: NE2174
Location
This business opportunity is located within a busy shopping parade, known as the William Doxford Centre, which has Morrisons Supermarket as the lead tenant. Access is straightforward from the Doxford Park Way and the main A19 Trunk Road is less than 10 minutes away by road.
Business
This business has occupied the same unit since the shopping centre was opened but, after nearly 30 years of trade, the current owner and her staff have decided to plan for retirement.
This is a popular and reputable florist with high levels of repeat trade and one which does not rely on any 3rd party platforms for leads. Flowers In The Park offers a range of products to suit all budgets and have a wide customer base. Within the industry, the shop is well known for the quality of their funeral arrangements.
The surrounding area comprises residential housing, offices and industrial estates and this delivers a certain amount of captive trade. The Morrisons supermarket opposite also generates good levels of customers as they no longer offer flowers for sale.
There is a delivery service that covers a radius which includes Peterlee to the south and Gateshead to the northeast. A liveried car will be available to buy by separate negotiation.
