SOLD - Ham Corner Market Deli, Todmorden

BUSY AND HIGHLY PROFITABLE MARKET DELI in Todmorden.

This outstanding business was established over 20 years ago and is a firm favourite amongst the locals and visitors to this upper Calder Valley market town in West Yorkshire.  Local food produced with the finest ingredients.  The shop is one of the highest grossing delicatessens we have had the pleasure to bring to the market, with tremendous weekly takings, exceptional profitability and very low overheads. Operating from the town’s historic, Victorian, glass-roofed Market Hall, the footfall is very consistent all year around.  The shop provides everything from a simple hot or cold sandwich to slow-cooked carvery meats and buffet platters. Hand-made pies and quiches, cooked in the deli’s own bakehouse, are in huge demand and produce profit margins.  With a low rent of just £350 per month and a new five year lease with the local council, the profitability is truly enviable.  After 20 years of successful trading, the owners are looking forward to a well-earned retirement, although the husband could be talked into working a few hours a week on the pie making operation, just to keep his hand in!  Indoor, wide market stall, with highly attractive chilled deli cases fronting an open plan food prep area. The unit rent includes a brick built, lean-to outbuilding which is the bakehouse for the operation.  EPC Exempt. Business on lease. Ref: 590230
