INDEPENDENT PET FOOD AND SUPPLIES BUSINESS in Harrogate for Sale.

An exceptional opportunity to acquire a beautifully presented and well-established pet supplies business, superbly positioned on one of Harrogate’s most sought-after and high-footfall trading locations. The business has been successfully owned and operated by our client since its establishment in 2022 and is now being offered to the market solely due to ill health.

The business trades during convenient and manageable hours across seven days, generating a strong and consistent turnover in excess of £5,000 per week. This is further enhanced by excellent profit margins, making it an attractive and sustainable venture for a new owner. In addition, the business benefits from exclusive local supply arrangements with a number of highly regarded and popular brands, including Dry Robe, George Barclay and Muck Boots, providing a significant competitive advantage within the area.

The premises comprise an eye-catching double-fronted unit, offering a bright and spacious retail environment with outstanding display potential. The ground floor provides a well-laid-out sales area with multiple retail zones, attractive merchandising opportunities, and a dedicated counter and point-of-sale facility. Below, the lower ground floor offers valuable ancillary space including a staff room with kitchenette, WC facilities, and a separate room currently sublet to a dog grooming business. This arrangement provides a reliable rental income, along with additional ancillary trade generated by grooming customers visiting the shop on a daily basis. Externally, the property boasts a sizeable forecourt area, which is currently utilised to excellent effect as additional retail and display space, further enhancing the shop’s visibility and trading appeal. The premises are held on a secure lease with sensible and affordable rental terms, contributing to the overall attractiveness of this opportunity. EPC band D
