BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
Established Commercial/Wholesale Bakery
Ref. ED014
Location : Lancashire
Asking Price : £180,000 inc. net assets
Established some 20 years ago this highly respected and successful commercial bakery has been serving local businesses for many years and in that time has built up a sterling reputation for providing good quality bakery products at very competitive prices. It is particularly well known for its bread buns, confectionary and savoury offerings.
Ideally located close to its customer base the bakery has strong local market presence .The majority of wholesale customers (circa 240 in total) are located within a 20 mile radius of the bakery.
The bakery itself is large and situated on a busy industrial estate. It comprises a single storey property and it is fully equipped as you would expect from a business some 20 years old. The premises are divided into the main bakery areas, flour store, dispatch area, offices. A full asset inventory can be made available to suitably interested parties.
Operating within the wholesale marketplace the business has a very high level of regular custom and delivers to many of its clients on a daily basis.
This company uses only the finest traditional recipes and quality ingredients to produce a wide range of wholesome and delicious breads, pastries, cakes, biscuits and confectionary products. The business also manufactures a wide range of fresh savouries including pies, pasties and sausage rolls. Customers include retailers, mini-markets, sandwich shops, agents and commercial businesses.
This business offers a very personal and courteous service. This is illustrated by the impressive sales and consistent figures it achieves year on year. This is an excellent opportunity to acquire an established business highly regarded for its quality products and customer care. The business has excellent infrastructure with capacity for future growth.

Market / Competition / Non-Competition Agreements
The business does very little in the way of self-promotion and marketing, preferring to rely on repeat business and referrals to generate sales. There is huge scope to increase its exposure should a new owner so require.

The business does have a website. However, the further development of the site could assist in this business increasing its penetration of the wholesale sector.
