Location
This respected Fish & Chip Takeaway is located in the thriving Northamptonshire town of Desborough. Enjoying a prominent and highly visible position on one of the town's main roads, the business attracts strong levels of passing trade as well as repeat custom from the local community. Desborough sits around (5 miles) northwest of Kettering and benefits from excellent transport links via the A6 and A14, making it easily accessible from the wider area. The town itself is expanding rapidly with significant new housing developments underway, bringing increased footfall and creating excellent growth potential for the business.

Business Description
Veritas Business Sales are delighted to present this well established Freehold Fish & Chip Takeaway which is located in town of Desborough. Serving the community since 1992, the business has been successfully operated by the current owners since 2000. After many successful years of trading, they are now offering the business and property for sale in order to focus on other ventures and a planned relocation abroad. The owner has continually invested in new equipment along with fixtures & fittings which are all bought and paid for and included within the sale price which is a huge plus for any new purchaser as additional funds will not need to be spent for some time.
Desborough Fish Bar is owner operated and supported by a reliable team of 8 part time members of staff. The business achieves a solid turnover from walk-in trade only and these will be shared upon request.The menu includes a wide range of freshly prepared fish and chips, along with pies, saveloys, savouries, kebabs, burgers, southern fried chicken and cold drinks.
There is clear scope for a new owner to further increase trade by extending the current opening hours, expanding the menu, introducing online ordering through platforms such as Just Eat and Uber Eats, and developing a dedicated website or app for direct sales. There is huge natural growth potential in that Desborough is a thriving and fast-growing town, making this an excellent location for a business of this kind. More than 1,400 new homes are already approved and under construction in Desborough, with further major developments in nearby Rothwell (including over 900 new homes). These projects are steadily bringing the two towns together, transforming the local area, and significantly increasing the customer base within easy reach of the takeaway.
This presents a golden opportunity for a new owner to capitalise on the rapid expansion of the community, ensuring a growing stream of new customers alongside an already loyal local following. With more families moving in and limited direct competition, Desborough Fish Bar is exceptionally well placed to thrive and expand in the years ahead. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a long established, turnkey business complete with well maintained freehold premises and additional residential income of £800 per month from the accommodation above and as such an early viewing is highly recommended.
