Description
An exceptional opportunity has arisen to acquire a well-established jewellery wholesale and retail business, boasting a strong reputation and a loyal customer base built over more than 20 years. This business combines profitability, flexibility, and growth potential. Currently operating from retail premises in Frome, Somerset, it is easily relocatable anywhere in the UK, making it an ideal investment for those already in the industry or seeking a lucrative new venture. Early viewings are strongly recommended.
Business Overview
This wholesale business consistently generates a reliable and sustainable income, with healthy net profits. Thanks to an efficient and well-structured operation, it does not demand a full-time commitment and does not require five-day-per-week involvement. This makes it an excellent bolt-on opportunity for those already in the trade, or a fantastic standalone venture for anyone wishing to enter the jewellery industry without the restrictions of a traditional retail setup.
A particularly exciting aspect of this business is the opportunity to attend trade shows, offering valuable exposure to new trends, industry contacts, and new business opportunities. In addition, the business can be managed remotely, providing an excellent work-life balance and the flexibility to scale operations as desired.
With a solid infrastructure already in place-including long-standing supplier relationships, established customer accounts, and an efficient operational framework-the transition for a new owner would be seamless. This is the perfect opportunity for someone looking to expand their portfolio, enter the jewellery trade with a ready-made profitable business, or complement an existing wholesale, retail, or fashion venture. Trading accounts will be made available following a successful formal viewing.
Premises
The business currently operates from attractive retail premises on St Catherine's Hill, in the sought-after market town of Frome, Somerset.

At the rear of the premises, the wholesale operation is equipped with stock, packaging, and an office to facilitate the smooth day-to-day running of the business.
