Summary - The Bridge, 20 Colne Road, HUDDERSFIELD HD1 3AY
1 bed 1 bath Commercial Property
Low-rent, cash-positive business with clear digital growth potential.
Profitable industrial supplies business, £82,817 operating profit
A long-established industrial supplies business in Huddersfield offering immediate cashflow and clear expansion routes. The company generated £772,954 gross turnover (£644,129 net) with an operating profit of £82,817 for the year ended 31 October 2024, supported by a loyal commercial customer base that supplies roughly 70% of sales. The premises are leasehold with effective net rent of just £6,000 per annum because part of the space is sub-let. Stock is included at £12,000.
The business trades Monday–Friday on a 42.75-hour week, run by the owners with a small part-time team — an operator can scale sales quickly because there are currently no online channels. Practical growth opportunities include launching e-commerce, targeted marketing, expanding product ranges, and extending delivery coverage to amplify regional accounts. The unit’s industrial character, high ceilings, and garage/roller access suit continued trade or light refurbishment.
Buyers should note material considerations: the property is leasehold, sits in a high-crime, deprived urban area and carries a medium flooding risk. The building is historic sandstone (pre-1900) and appears to lack wall insulation; some refurbishment or insulation upgrade may be required. EPC Band C and triple glazing are positives; heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators. This listing suits an investor or trade operator seeking a profitable bolt-on, or an entrepreneur wanting a proven, scalable business with immediate returns and definable growth plans.
