Premier, 255 Blackness Road, Dundee, Scotland, DD2 1RT

The business trades well from its corner location on the busy thoroughfare of Blackness Road, which connects the city centre with the west of the city. With on-street parking available it receives consistent passing trade. The surrounding area is a mix of residential homes and flats, with many students taking up accommodation due to the proximity to the University ensuring daily foot traffic to the store.

The compact and modern shop floor allow it to be ran easily by minimal staff, keeping cost down. We feel this may suit an existing operator who is looking to add a strong turnover shop to their portfolio and have staff managed or, a first time buyer looking to ease themselves into the industry with an easy to manage yet busy convenience store.

We would recommend viewing the business to understand its potential.

The city of Dundee is the forth largest city in Scotland. Lying within the historic county of Angus, it was an important east coast trading port due to its location on the Firth of Tay, which feeds the North sea.

Today, Dundee is promoted as 'Once City, Many Discoveries' in honour of Dundee's history of scientific activities and for the RRS Discovery, the Antarctic exploration vessel built in Dundee and now berthed as a tourist attraction at Discovery point, next to the V & A museum opened in 2018. Dundee is also home to two Universities which ensures a high student population.

Due to its central east coast position, Dundee is reachable by car from Edinburgh, Glasgow, or Aberdeen in approximately 1 hour 30 minutes. It has excellent rail and bus services and a small airport.

The internal space has a large crisp gondola to the left of the entrance door with chillers lining the wall housing a large selection of soft drinks. There are two upright freezer cabinets with a mixture of frozen foods and a separate wall ice cream freezer unit.

To the right of the door is the service area with till unit and Lottery terminal at the counter. Tobacco and vaping products, plus a selection of high value spirits, are merchandised also. There is an open faced chiller for beers, wines, and ciders leading to further alcohol shelving. Opposite is confectionery shelving which leads to a back alcove area where more house hold grocery items are mechanised.

There is a separate commercial unit which lies to the right of the shop. This is included in the sale and currently used for storage. This could be opened to form another trading business after obtaining consent from the local Council.

We have been advised that all trade fixtures and fittings are owned outright and included within the sale/purchase.

The premises occupies the ground floor corner plot of a four storey brick building with pitch tiled roof.

The exterior of the shop has been painted black with several decals and posters across the façade. The entrance door is central to the shop frontage, slightly recessed, with a roll down metal shutter. A tenement door sits between the shop and empty unit which has a built in cash machine, entrance door, and more advertising decals.

A well ran and established store located in the heart of Dundee. The business benefits from consistent levels of high turnover with repeat custom from the surrounding areas, as well as passing trade due to the main road location.

This is an outstanding opportunity to acquire a business offered with a long-term lease. A new operator may wish to expand into the home delivery service or develop hot food to go options, which would immediately increase turnover.

We believe this could be a great lifestyle change opportunity for the right individual or be added to an existing operators portfolio.

The current owner can make available Sales Reports to interested parties post viewing stage.
