Description

Alan J Picken are delighted to offer this Established & Popular Homeware Business onto the market.

The business was established 30 years ago and is now offered for sale due to our client wishing to take a well-deserved retirement after many happy years in the business.

The business occupies a prime trading position in the heart of Ripon and over the years it has established an excellent reputation in the trade attracting a local and loyal client base as well as customers from further afield.

Currently trading 7 days a week, it sells a range of homeware, furniture and gifts with majority of companies offering exclusivity in Ripon. There's scope to take advantage of the prime position and excellent premises, in fact this could be an ideal bed centre for Ripon as there is certainly the appetite for this and the third floor is vacant at present with a large area that can be utilized.

There's also scope for online sales via a website and social media with pushing the businesses online presence on Instagram and Facebook to increase sales and maximize profits.

Turnover £295,972 on year-end 2024 accounts.
37% Gross Profit.
Adjusted Net Profit in excess of £75,000.

We trust this will prove a resoundingly successful acquisition, especially for a dedicated owner proprietor to continue to exploit the full potential and derive maximum profits.

About Alan J Picken, Ilkley

21 The Grove, Ilkley, LS29 9LW

Thinking of selling your business?

Here at Alan J Picken's, using our 40 years' experience in business transfer, we know exactly what it takes to sell your business. We are a family run business, renowned for

offering a personal and professional service- we are an established brand that you can trust.

No hidden costs

We do not take a business on to sell unless we believe we can sell it. Some agents will take on businesses at an over-inflated valuation just to charge their hidden advertising fees or exit fees when the business inevitably does

not sell. With our 40 years' experience of valuing and selling businesses, our valuations are at the level that we

believe the business will sell for and not an over-inflated figure to entice you. We don't believe in hidden exit fees

or advertising costs, here at Alan J Picken we are committed to being open and transparent when it comes to

commission and advertising fees

Maximum exposure

We will market your business extensively across all the major business for sale websites, ensuring your business

is seen by thousands of active buyers in just a matter of days. As well as our extensive database of buyer's that

we have on file.

Competitive fees

We are a family run business and are able to offer some of the most competitive rates in the industry. We are

able to do this as we do not subcontract out to expensive sales reps, the member of our team who carried out

your initial valuation will be on hand to guide you through the sale process.

Confidentiality

We know selling your business can be stressful and you may not want your customers or staff to find out. Here at

Alan J Picken we can tailor our marketing to ensure your business is kept discreet and confidential.

Specialist Solicitors

We have excellent relationships with many solicitors who specialize in business transfer, some of whom we have

dealt with for over 40 years.
