Description

BAKERS AND THREE SANDWICH BARS in South Yorkshire for Sale.

A well-established and highly regarded multi-site bakery and sandwich business in South Yorkshire is available for acquisition. The operation comprises three prominent retail outlets across a strong regional catchment, supported by a centrally located, fully equipped production bakehouse. Over many years, the business has developed a loyal customer base and a reputation for quality, consistency, and traditional offerings.

Renowned locally for its freshly baked goods, made-to-order sandwiches, and regional specialities, the business benefits from excellent customer feedback, with review scores consistently in the mid-to-high four-star range. It enjoys strong repeat custom, reliable daily footfall, and maintains high food hygiene standards across all locations. Its reputation as a dependable and well-loved local food provider underpins its continued success.

The business operates an efficient daytime retail model, complemented by overnight production from its own bakehouse. This vertically integrated structure provides full control over product quality, consistency, and margins, while also allowing flexibility in production volumes. Existing operations run smoothly under established systems, making the business well-positioned for a seamless transition to new ownership.

The current team consists of a mix of full-time and part-time staff, supported by a dedicated delivery driver. Staffing structures and operational processes are firmly in place, ensuring continuity and stability. This provides a solid platform for a new owner to maintain performance while exploring growth opportunities.

Financially, the business generates combined weekly retail takings of approximately £30,500, equating to around £1.58 million annually. Annualised adjusted net profit £493,577. It trades strongly within relatively limited opening hours, presenting clear opportunities to increase revenue through extended trading hours, the introduction of delivery platforms, catering services, wholesale supply, or the addition of further retail sites.

The business is offered for sale at approximately £850,000, including the freehold of the flagship retail site, alongside the established multi-site trading operation. There is also the option to acquire the freehold of the central production facility by separate negotiation, offering further long-term security and investment value.

The flagship location, situated in a busy town centre setting, generates the highest weekly takings and serves as the core of the operation, benefiting from strong footfall and a deeply rooted local following. A second site, positioned in a residential and commuter area, provides steady and reliable daytime trade supported by the surrounding community. The third outlet, located on a busy suburban high street, performs particularly well during breakfast and lunchtime periods, driven by both local residents and passing trade.

The central production facility operates overnight, supplying all retail sites with fresh products. It is fully equipped and currently has spare capacity, offering significant potential for expansion into wholesale supply or further retail growth. This facility plays a key role in maintaining product consistency and supporting the scalability of the business.

Overall, this opportunity represents the acquisition of a profitable, well-established regional food business with strong brand recognition, integrated production capabilities, property ownership, and clear potential for future growth. It is likely to appeal to owner-operators, established bakery groups, or investors seeking a scalable platform within the food retail sector.
