More details

 Well-established and very popular high class family butchers and delicatessen business, incorporating a Post Office in Stafford.

The business was originally established in 1953 and has been in our clients’ careful ownership since 1974. Only now is the business being offered to the market due to our clients’ desire for a well-deserved retirement. The business currently operates 6 days per week and generates a turnover in the region of £660,000 per annum, with a gross profit of approximately 40%.

Our clients offer a wide range of goods including the very best, locally sourced beef, pork, lamb, poultry and game. The fully stocked delicatessen offers a huge range of homemade pies and pastries, cooked meats and continental cheeses. Our clients also supply catering customers with a high-quality service and free daily deliveries. The Post Office can be accessed via both an external door or internal access and offers two secure Post Office positions.

The business has built up an excellent reputation within the area and further afield, for the very high quality of the goods and services offered, which has resulted in a very loyal client base, with a high volume of repeat trade and word of mouth recommendations.

We feel there is scope to increase the turnover by extending the opening hours, perhaps by offering Sunday trading. A new owner could embark on a modest marketing campaign to promote the excellent goods offered. The business already has an excellent and very informative website in place to advertise the produce at www.hindlesbutchers.co.uk.

This is an excellent opportunity for a new owner, perhaps a husband and wife team or partnership, to take this already busy business to the next level; therefore, early discussions with Hilton Smythe must come highly recommended to avoid disappointment.

The business is owner run and managed with 6 x full time and 4 x part time staff members.

The business is open:

Monday – Friday: 8.00am – 5.30pm
Saturday: 7.00am – 4.00pm
Sunday: Closed
