Blacks Business Brokers Facilitates Successful Sale Of Inspiration Manchester Ltd
Blacks Business Brokers is delighted to confirm the successful sale of Inspiration Manchester Ltd, a long-standing and much-loved salon located in the heart of Blackley. First established in 2003, this business has earned a stellar reputation for delivering a wide range of high-quality hair, nail, makeup, and beauty services, becoming a cornerstone of the local community for over two decades.
Located in a thriving and highly sought-after area, Inspiration Manchester Ltd is positioned on a busy main road within a bustling parade of shops and offices. The salon enjoys a constant flow of footfall from the surrounding residential area, with neighbouring businesses including large multiples like Esso and The Post Office alongside independent retailers. Excellent transport links via the M60 and reliable public transport make the location both easily accessible and highly visible. Free parking directly outside the property also ensures maximum convenience for clients.
Over the years, the business has built a solid and loyal client base, many of whom have been visiting the salon for years. The success of the salon is also reflected in its strong online presence, with glowing reviews on both Google and Facebook, and a growing social media following that continues to generate local engagement and attract new customers. The interior of the premises is a testament to the care and investment made by the current owner, featuring modern lighting, stylish wooden flooring, and contemporary décor. The salon offers ten mirrored styling stations and three backwash sinks, a nail bar, a welcoming reception area, and a dedicated retail space for product sales. To the rear, two beautifully presented private beauty rooms provide further service flexibility, while staff enjoy access to their own kitchen and clean, modern toilet facilities.
The property also includes substantial accommodation on the first floor, comprising two bedrooms, a kitchen, a lounge, and a bathroom, offering either additional income potential or on-site living for the business owner. Behind the premises sits a spacious garage used for storage, a private garden area, and the significant benefit of eight designated parking spaces – a rare and valuable asset in such a central location.
With Small Business Rates Relief currently in place, and rental income from chair renters at approximately £500 per week, the financials are highly attractive. In addition to this, the self-contained accommodation generates a further £650 per month when rented. For the year ending February 2023, the business posted an annual turnover of £77,184 and a gross profit of £58,319, reflecting consistent performance and a strong operational model. The salon currently runs with one full-time employed staff member, supported by four self-employed chair renters, all contributing to a smooth and effective business operation.
The decision to sell was not taken lightly. Our client, who remains passionate about the beauty sector, has found their other business interests demanding more attention than anticipated, prompting the sale of Inspiration Manchester Ltd to ensure the business continues to flourish under new ownership. Recognising the need for experienced support in managing the sale, they turned to Blacks Business Brokers – a trusted name in business sales with a national reputation for delivering results.
Through a targeted marketing strategy, tailored buyer profiling, and expert negotiation, we were able to attract substantial interest from serious prospective buyers. It was crucial that the buyer not only understood the value of the salon’s strong reputation and location but also had the drive to build upon its success. We are pleased to confirm that a buyer with the right vision and commitment has now taken the reins.
Chelsea Melnyk, Sales Negotiator at Blacks Business Brokers, said: “Inspiration Manchester Ltd has been a standout listing. It’s rare to see a business that combines such a high-quality fit-out with a loyal client base and multiple income streams. The seller was incredibly dedicated to finding a buyer who would carry the salon forward and keep serving the Blackley community. It’s been a pleasure to oversee this deal, and we’re confident the new owner will make the most of the outstanding opportunity that’s been handed to them.”
The sale of Inspiration Manchester Ltd highlights the continued strength of the beauty and wellness sector, even during periods of wider economic uncertainty.
