Description
A prime-positioned bakery takeaway business for sale in the highly sought-after, year-round busy market town of Totnes, Devon. These double-fronted premises are in a prime location within the town, benefiting from exceptionally high footfall, passing vehicle traffic, and convenient parking right outside. The premises offer seating for over 20 covers inside, with additional alfresco tables and chairs outside. This highly successful business offers a range of bakery products, including pasties, sausage rolls, ice cream, drinks, hot beverages, and much more. Early viewings are highly recommended.
LOCATION
The market town of Totnes lies in the heart of Devon and is equidistant between Plymouth and the university city of Exeter, with access to the M5 motorway and international airport. Totnes has convenient access to the A38 motorway and is only a short drive from the attractive coastal towns of Torquay and Paignton. It is also well-served by local bus and railway lines, providing connections to the surrounding area and London. The business is located in the very heart of Totnes, enjoying tremendous foot traffic and visitor numbers increase significantly during the summer months due to tourism.
BUSINESS
The business is operated by a husband-and-wife team with part-time assistance as needed. It generates an impressive net turnover and excellent net profit. Year-on-year turnover continues to grow, with great potential for further development by introducing additional products and extending opening hours.
