Blacks Business Brokers Facilitates Successful Sale Of Spoilt 4 Choice Cafe & Catering
Blacks Business Brokers are proud to announce the successful sale of Spoilt 4 Choice Cafe & Catering, a thriving and much-loved café and catering business located in the heart of Romiley. This sale marks yet another example of Blacks’ dedication to delivering successful outcomes for business owners looking to sell, and we are delighted to have assisted our client in finding the right buyer to carry this well-established enterprise into its next chapter.
Established in 2017 by our client, Spoilt 4 Choice Cafe & Catering quickly became a cornerstone of the local community, drawing in both residents and passers-by with its fresh, high-quality breakfasts, lunches, snacks and drinks. A similar business had been present on the site since the late 1990s, and our client capitalised on this legacy by further refining the offering and customer service to create a destination that locals repeatedly returned to. The café earned glowing reviews across platforms such as Google, Facebook and Yell, and cultivated a loyal customer base alongside a strong social media presence. Located on a busy main road within a parade of shops in a desirable and densely populated residential area, the business benefitted significantly from footfall and visibility.
The sale was triggered by our client’s decision to retire, opening the door for a new owner-operator or team to step into a business that was not only profitable, but exceptionally well-positioned for growth. The new owner inherits a turnkey operation, with a strong reputation, a loyal customer base, and a well-trained team already in place – including a manager and additional staff capable of running day-to-day operations independently.
Spoilt 4 Choice Cafe & Catering occupies a well-maintained ground floor commercial property with excellent branding and a modern glazed frontage secured by an electric roller shutter. The internal layout includes a customer-facing counter area, indoor seating, a spacious kitchen and a well-organised storage area. Toilet facilities and a rear yard with a refuge zone complete the premises, which is fully equipped and ready for continued operations. The current lease, a Full Repair and Insure (FRI) lease signed in May 2023, runs for three years at a weekly rent of £185, offering stability and predictability for the new owner.
Financially, the business demonstrated consistent performance, with the most recent accounts (ending 31st January 2024) showing an annual turnover of £153,198 and a gross profit of £83,807. These impressive figures reflect a solid business model and a high level of customer demand, which presents further opportunity for expansion. Suggestions for growth include extended opening hours, an enhanced digital ordering platform, a local delivery service and the potential to develop outdoor seating to capture additional trade during warmer months.
The new owner will be stepping into a business that is ready to evolve while already operating on a strong foundation. The appeal of Spoilt 4 Choice Cafe & Catering is not only in its financial performance but also in its community footprint and reputation. The café enjoys a five-star hygiene rating, a testament to our client’s dedication to excellence in food preparation and customer care. It is ideally suited to a hands-on team eager to build upon its successes.
Blacks Business Brokers played a crucial role in guiding the sale from start to finish, providing the expertise, discretion and strategic marketing necessary to attract serious buyers and complete the transaction smoothly. By positioning the business to highlight its strengths and identifying the most qualified purchasers, we were able to ensure a swift and successful sale.
Joanne Booth, the Sales Negotiator at Blacks Business Brokers who oversaw the transaction, commented: “Spoilt 4 Choice was a pleasure to work with from the beginning. Our client had clearly invested a lot of time and energy into building a business with heart, quality and community value. I’m thrilled that we were able to help them move on to retirement and bring in a buyer who shares that same passion. The business is in very good hands, and I’m excited to see what the future holds.”
