Sold. Catering Services Business For Sale

This is a fantastic opportunity to acquire a newly formed and highly profitable business which includes a new August 2011 mobile catering trailer and a private site in Ashton-Under-Lyne, Lancashire. The business can be manned single-handedly without staff.

The owner of Hot and Cold Foods has a number of similar successful business in non-conflicting locations and after securing the location on this private site, the business is now for sale due to a change in circumstances meaning this could not be family operated.

The business includes a new £22,500 custom built 12 feet long Visage catering trailer which comes fully equipped with high quality and also brand new facilities, including 4 ft griddle, drinks fridge, fridge freezer, 10 gallon Parry boiler, sinks, stainless steel counter and with full gas certification.

As the site is on private land with a nominal weekly commitment of £25, the business escapes the requirement of annual licence from the council, further enhancing the profitability.

It is understood that the daily running costs amount to under £20 and the current weekly takings of around £600 to £750 do not yet include trade during term time as the site is close to a nearby college. The busy main road location is on Mossley Road, Ashton-Under-Lyne and a mile from the town centre.

Hot and Cold Foods currently operates Monday to Friday from 7.30am to 1.30pm, leaving the weekends free for additional lucrative off site venues and private functions, should the new owner desire.

This business should appeal to those perhaps looking at sandwich shops that prefer the flexibility and lower running costs of this type of business.
