The Wedding Mill, Saltaire - another business sold by Ernest Wilsons
This eye-catching shop enjoys a prime position in a quality shopping area which serves a number of affluent areas stretching along the Aire Valley. This is a bridal wear business with a difference – in addition to offering a selection of new bridal wear and accessories, the business also sells pre-owned bridal wear which not only attracts a wider range of customers, but it substantially reduces the amount of stock (monetary value) which has to be held – the pre-owned items are sold on a “commission” basis (like dress agency businesses). The business trades very well on a sensible amount of stock and it achieves an excellent profit margin. Our client wishes to spend more time with their other business, we therefore believe that the growth potential of the business would be best realised in the hands of new owners with the commitment, enthusiasm and resources to drive the business forward. Ground Floor: beautifully presented double fronted sales and showroom area with fitting cubicle. First Floor: 2 store rooms, 2 alteration rooms, kitchen, WC and washroom. Space on this floor to expand and develop. Unused basement. The current opening hours are restricted (vendors choice) to 4 days only – massive potential here for a new owner to extend the opening hours and to expand the stock choices and to establish more contacts with other businesses in the “wedding industry” . Business on lease. Ref: 556439
