This long-established fitted kitchens and bedrooms business trades from a leasehold shopfront in SS8 and has operated for nearly 40 years. It delivers design, manufacture and installation, supported by CAD-generated photo-realistic visuals and a planning/design consultation service. Recent turnover exceeds £206,000, evidencing steady local demand across Benfleet, Chelmsford and Canvey Island.
The premises offer a modern retail ground-floor storefront and a contemporary workshop/kitchen area. Directors are prepared to negotiate a handover period to help with transition; the sale is prompted by retirement. Mobile signal and broadband are excellent, supporting CAD work and client communications.
Material factors: the business is offered as a leasehold concern, so incoming owners must assume or renegotiate the premises lease. The sale is for the trading business and its goodwill; operational continuity depends on handover terms and any future premises arrangements. The local demographic is ageing suburbanites, which supports replacement kitchens but suggests limited new-build demand growth.
For an investor or operator seeking a turnkey fit-out and installation operation with strong local reputation, this presents immediate trading revenue and design capability. There is scope to expand marketing beyond the local area, develop trade/commercial partnerships, or diversify product lines to increase margins.
