The retirement of our client creates this very lucrative opportunity for a new owner to take over and either run the business themselves or to make an investment and allow the very team of competent staff to run the business in its present form and earn a very good return on such investment. This is a relatively straight forward business to run operated in predominantly only 7 hours per day during the week and 5.5 hours on a Saturday.
