Established card and gift business with strong margins and expansion potential.
Double-fronted corner unit with five large display windows
A rare double-fronted high street retail unit occupying a prominent corner position in central Liskeard. The ground floor trading area of c.1,498 sqft and lower-ground basement provide generous display and storage space, plus five large display windows that maximise passing footfall and seasonal visibility. The sale includes all fixtures and fittings and the business web address, supporting immediate trading and e-commerce growth.
Trading accounts to 2024 show annual turnover of £178,760 and a gross profit of circa 56%, reflecting strong margin on core product lines. The business has operated from this location for 19 years and benefits from steady local trade with potential uplift during Cornwall's summer tourist season. The property is offered as Freehold or Leasehold, giving flexibility for owner-operators or investors.
Buyers should note practical and location-related constraints. Broadband speeds are very slow which will affect online order processing without investment. The building is Victorian with granite walls and assumed no cavity insulation, contributing to an EPC rating of D; energy efficiency improvements may be required. The town centre records higher crime levels and the area is classified as very deprived, which may influence insurance and staffing considerations.
This is a transactional opportunity for an investor or retail entrepreneur seeking an established business and spacious physical footprint in a marketable Cornish town. The layout, display frontage and included fittings reduce set-up time, while the web presence and product range offer scope to expand lines and improve margins with modest investment in online capability and building fabric upgrades.
