The Wedding Mill, Saltaire - another business sold by Ernest Wilsons

BRIDAL WEAR AND ACCESSORIES, Saltaire

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

PAT Testing and fire safety, run from home - another business sold

PAT TESTING & FIRE SAFETY FOR SALE – Run from Home.

Fabulous, old established business which is not only HIGHLY PROFITABLE and easily operated but oozes potential. The business provides an annual service to all electrical appliances in the workplace from general office equipment, computers, printers, large items of machinery etc to domestic appliances in canteens and kitchens within any workplace in order for the client to show that they comply with the Electricity at Work Regulation 1989. The business has a large database of customers which include many “Blue Chip” companies and the scope to increase here is enormous as many businesses are still not aware/availing themselves of this service which some insurance companies also make a requirement. Our client could very easily obtain more work but this would require him to work longer hours or employ a third party – Currently run in approximately 40 hours per week, Monday to Friday only – NO WEEKEND WORK. The business shows excellent adjusted net profits and continues to rise.  The business has been sensibly priced. Ref: 554600

Good luck to the new owners of the Harlequin Restaurant in Cowling - another sale by Ernest Wilsons

A lovely write up by the Keighley News

A COWLING restaurant with a chequered past has new faces at the helm.
And they have taken over the Harlequin with a pledge to restore the strong reputation of the Keighley Road premises.
Dominique Marshall and her partner Dean Marren took the lease on the property in November and following a refurbishment, opened the building as a bistro last month.
The premises, which have changed hands several times over the years, had closed last summer.
Dominique, 37, who lived at Laycock with chef Dean and their two young children before the move to the Harlequin, says the initial feedback to their new venture has been excellent.
"We've had a lot of local support and people are pleased it's being restored to how it was," she said.
"It's still early days, but we are seeing customers returning.
"We're hoping to 'gee up' the lunch trade – lunches haven't been served here for several years.
"About five years ago we tried to acquire the premises, but missed out on that occasion. We're delighted to be here now."
The couple employ two full-time staff and several part-time workers.

Another great Ernest Wilson review

From: Martin Bray
To: Jonathan Holmes

Good morning Jonathan 

In 2006 I decided to sell my fish and chip shop in Castleford, using Ernest Wilsons the first time. I had the shop valued in September and as soon as I put in on the market I had plenty of viewings from many buyers and an offer was made and accepted. This is so easy - the negotiator does all the work to ensure a smooth, effortless sale

In 2013 after buying another fish shop from you, I decided to sell this shop which was sold by you.

I bought another shop on 2014 and again you helped me sell it again and I have since bought 2 further fish shops from you which I am currently running.

The buying and selling through Ernest Wilson's from the phone call to arrange a valuation to exchanging is so professional - everyone who works there from Martin, Vanessa, Michael, Kim, Jonathan and Paul will help you through your experience so after all my experience it's a pleasure to use this firm and highly recommend them to anyone wishing to sell.

Yours sincerely,

Martin Bray
