Description

FISH, CHIPS AND PIZZA in Shildon for Sale.

This well-established, high-turnover fish and chip and grill takeaway operates from a prime location in Shildon, benefiting from a large shoppers car park and proximity to a busy convenience store and community centre. Full menus, opening hours, and contact details are available on the company website, which also serves as the main ordering portal. The business is run by the owners with two full-time staff supporting service and kitchen duties - an efficient model that keeps operations streamlined. Strong weekly takings of £10,000 to £11,000 are driven by a loyal local customer base and consistent repeat trade. A key strength is the exclusive use of in-house digital channels for delivery. Orders are placed via the website and a dedicated mobile app, both actively promoted. This approach retains margins otherwise lost to third-party platforms and gives greater control over service, customer data, and profitability. The app is listed on major app stores, and the website encourages downloads and pre-orders. Local reputation is excellent, with frequent positive reviews highlighting generous portions, good service, and a varied menu. Social media channels are active, sharing updates and promotions to maintain visibility. EARLY VIEWING IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

The premises which are held on a 15 year lease from 2017 offer a well organised takeaway kitchen and service with a very impressive range of quality catering equipment which includes a modern, computerised, three- pan counter range and double, conveyor pizza oven. All laid out to manage a busy throughput of fried fish, grills, pizzas and a wide range of fast-food favourites. The menu is extensive and includes everything from classic fish and chips to kebabs, burgers and pizzas. Immediately to the rear of the sales shop is a preparation kitchen with rumbling area and a very large stock room beyond which could be used as a further kitchen for outside catering or future growth. Second spacious storage area with large staff room beyond. Staff WC.
