Blacks Business Brokers is pleased to announce the successful sale of Paper Trail, a long-established newsagent and convenience store in the centre of Ashton-under-Lyne, Greater Manchester.
Paper Trail has been trading for more than four decades and developed into a well-established local business serving both regular customers and passing trade. The store offered a broad range of convenience products alongside traditional newsagent lines, helping it build a recognisable presence within the town centre.
The business occupied a prominent trading position on Warrington Street in central Ashton-under-Lyne, surrounded by a mixture of independent retailers, national businesses and local amenities.
Ashton-under-Lyne is the administrative centre of Tameside and benefits from a busy retail centre, market, college, offices and a major public transport interchange. Its connections by road, rail and Metrolink also provide convenient access to Manchester and the wider Greater Manchester area.
Traditional newsagents and convenience stores remain an important part of many UK high streets and neighbourhood shopping areas. Long-established businesses can offer prospective purchasers the advantages of an existing customer base, recognised trading identity and an established position within their local community.
The successful completion of Paper Trail is another example of the wide variety of independent retail and convenience businesses handled by Blacks Business Brokers throughout the UK.
We would like to thank our client for choosing Blacks Business Brokers and wish the new owners every success as they take this long-established Ashton-under-Lyne business forward.
