BLACKS BUSINESS BROKERS ANNOUNCE THE SUCCESSFUL SALE OF BUS STOP CAFE IN URMSTON, GREATER MANCHESTER.

Successful Sale of Established Hot Food Café in Urmston

Blacks Brokers are pleased to announce the successful sale of a well-established hot food café in Urmston. Having operated successfully for 7.5 years, the café has now closed, presenting a prime opportunity for a new owner to revitalise and relaunch the business under a new brand. The sale includes the fully equipped premises, with all fixtures, fittings, and assets transferred to the new owner, providing a turnkey solution for reopening. Furthermore, the rental costs have been fully covered until March 2025, significantly reducing initial overheads.

Prime Location for a Thriving Business

Situated on a prominent main road in Urmston, the property benefits from high visibility, excellent accessibility, and strong footfall. With its position along a major bus route and within a well-populated residential area, the location offers an attractive setting for a successful hospitality venture, particularly as there is limited direct competition in the vicinity.

Ready-to-Operate Premises

The property itself is a two-storey building, formerly a residential property, featuring a double-fronted window display, a single entrance and exit, and a rear garden. The interior remains fully equipped, ensuring the new owner can commence operations without incurring substantial refurbishment costs. The inclusion of all essential fixtures and fittings allows for a seamless transition and an efficient reopening process.

Financial Considerations

Prior to its closure, the café demonstrated impressive and consistent turnover figures. While external challenges led to its closure, the existing lease remains in place under favourable terms. The property is secured under a 20-year lease agreement that commenced in 2016, with an annual rent of £9,000. A new owner has the opportunity to leverage the established revenue potential by implementing effective management and marketing strategies.

A Complete Turnkey Opportunity

All fixtures and fittings necessary for operation are included in the sale, eliminating the need for significant capital investment in equipment or renovations. With no current operating hours in place, the new owner has complete flexibility to establish a schedule that best suits market demand and business objectives.

A Word from Amy Page, Business Broker

Amy Page, the broker who facilitated the sale, commented: “We are delighted to have successfully matched this well-equipped café with a new owner who recognises its potential. The premises, location, and included assets create a fantastic foundation for a thriving hospitality business. With rent paid until early 2025, the buyer has an incredible opportunity to focus on rebranding and relaunching with minimal initial costs. We look forward to seeing this business flourish once again under new ownership.”

This successful transaction underscores our commitment to facilitating smooth and strategic business sales, ensuring both sellers and buyers achieve their desired outcomes.
