TRADITIONAL VAPE SHOP CHAIN
DISS, HARLESTON & LONG STRATTON, NORFOLK

An opportunity to acquire an independent vape retail business operating across three well-positioned locations within South Norfolk and North Suffolk. The company specialises in the sale of e-cigarettes, vape liquids, disposable devices and related accessories, serving a consistent base of local customers.

Trading from established high street and town centre positions, the operation is recognised for its approachable service and accessible product range. The focus on in-store retail has created a dependable, repeat-purchase customer base, with further potential to enhance visibility through online channels and digital engagement.

BUSINESS:

Operations are structured across three nearby retail outlets, enabling efficient management and a recognisable presence across the local area. Income is generated primarily through over-the-counter sales, supported by regular customers purchasing consumable products such as e-liquids and disposables.

Stock includes a full range of vaping products, from entry-level devices through to advanced kits, alongside accessories and consumables. An own-brand e-liquid range is in place, with established supplier relationships and compliant production processes that can transfer to a new owner.

The current owners operate the stores directly, and no employees will transfer with the sale. Full supplier introductions will be provided to ensure continuity. Each location is fitted with EPOS systems, CCTV and alarm protection, supporting day-to-day retail operations.

Customer loyalty is driven by product knowledge, service quality and convenience, with demand largely generated from the surrounding residential catchments. While the existing model is centred on physical retail, there is scope to introduce e-commerce, customer databases and targeted marketing to broaden revenue streams.

PREMISES:

Three leasehold retail units are included, each configured for vape retail use and presented in good condition. All premises benefit from glazed frontages, internal display areas, fitted service counters and dedicated storage space, creating practical and efficient trading environments.

The largest unit in Diss provides a spacious retail area with additional rooms for storage, office use and staff facilities including a kitchenette and WC. The Harleston shop occupies a compact but prominent high street position, offering strong visibility and a streamlined layout. The Long Stratton unit is situated within a courtyard setting close to other retailers, with access to public parking and a well-balanced mix of retail and storage areas.

All locations are fitted with EPOS systems, CCTV coverage and alarm systems, with consistent layouts that support straightforward operation across the portfolio.
