About the Business
This is a fantastic business!
If you are sick of being on the 9-5 corporate treadmill and being told how much leave you can have and when you can take it, this could be the change you are looking for.
We, (the current owners), did exactly that 20 years ago. We got out of corporate careers and purchased this business so we could be present for our kids and have a healthy work/life balance.
Even better if you are a local or live close by to this business, you can forget the day to day commute and be your own boss!
Of course, be prepared to work hard. But the return is so worth it!
This business is perfect for a couple raising a family or a partnership.
Over 20 years this business has evolved to meet customer demand, introducing new income streams including a range of high end gifts and homewares, barista made coffee and niche collectables.
The business is based in a high traffic location with a dependable clientele and is situated in a highly desired beach location.
The business is fully computerised with 24/7 technical support available and 20 years of professional accounting records.
It has a strong website and social media following.
The store's Lotto revenue continues to maintain consistently high ranking on NSW Lotteries performance ratings.
The business is part of a well known buying group, giving exclusivity with high demand products, in particular, Royal Australian Mint collectors' coins. The business is also a designated drop off point for Lawrence dry cleaning with an exclusive agreement for Qantas uniforms.
All systems in this business have already been established. The hard work has already been done!
The new owner/s can walk in and run as is with a very attractive financial return, or they can work more hours in the business themselves to increase their return further.
WE ARE SEEKING GENUINE BUYERS ONLY. STRICTLY NO WALK-INS. CONTACT OWNERS DIRECT.
