Established convenience store in Clydebank on the market
Specialist business property adviser, Christie & Co has been instructed to sell Singh Stores, an established convenience store in the local community of Clydebank, West Dunbartonshire.
Singh Stores is centrally located on Auckland Place, within a large housing scheme hemmed in by the River Clyde to the west and Dumbarton Road (A814) to the east. The business is well established in the local community and has been operated by the current owner for over 35 years, who is now looking to retire to spend time with family, offering the business for leasehold sale.
With a loyal customer base built up over many years, consistent weekly sales and a good location within the housing scheme, the business offers a sure footing for a new operator, while still leaving plenty of room to increase turnover by modernising internally and improving the offering.
During the pandemic the current owner reduced the store’s opening hours and now only trades for nine hours per day, as well as closing on Sunday so there is a fantastic opportunity to immediately increase turnover by extending these hours. Adding a hot food to-go option and service such as the Lottery and PayPoint would also increase sales.
Liam Bain, Business Agent in Christie & Co’s Scottish Retail team who is handling the sale, comments, “This is an outstanding opportunity to acquire a leasehold business in a busy housing area. We believe this would suit a first time buyer who is looking to run their own business in a ‘hands-on’ manner.”
Singh Stores is on the market on a Leasehold basis, at £30,000.
