Billy Lou is located in the busy suburb of Leichhardt – a vibrant area with many young families.
Well positioned in famous Norton Street, the business is surrounded by restaurants and bars, and is opposite a busy medical centre.

There is an opportunity to franchise the business – within Sydney and especially interstate.
You could also grow the business by trading 7 days a week (currently trading 6 days) and expanding the range to include women’s shoes as there is little available locally. The owner has already researched this and knows there is definite potential.

After 15 years in the business, the owner is ready for a new opportunity – and is offering a generous training package.
