BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
Mobility Aids, Equipment and Accessories Retail Shop
Ref. GN013
Location : Hertfordshire
Asking Price : GBP 90,000
This business is part of a dual location retailing operation for mobility aids, equipment and accessories that has been trading since 1990 and with this particular outlet since 2009. The vendor has decided to sell this Hertfordshire outlet since both have been increasingly busy and he finds himself unable to match his efforts equally, as they each deserve.
The second second outlet is very much nearer the vendors home.
This profitable business has established itself as a market leader in the region with an enviable reputation for quality and service. Because of this the business enjoys very high levels of referrals and repeat business from a loyal following of customers.
The showroom carries a full stock covering key areas including:
Mobility
Bathing
Toileting
Personal Care
Bed & Chair
Comfort
Health& Leisure
Kitchen
Around the Home
Stairlifts
This outlet is run by the vendor and his wife with no additional staff and would suit a new owner manager motivated to commit to this outlet in a way that the vendor is unable to and thereby increase turnover and profits.
Location is ideal being close to a busy town centre, major road networks and other market towns and also has ample parking so customers can access the showroom easily.

Expansion Potential
The business has enjoyed consistent growth over recent years and this is expected to continue in light of its growing and loyal customer base.

The business does very little advertising and could certainly expand this activity with a more proactive approach. The business is well positioned to take maximum advantage of this growth as it occurs as it has the necessary infrastructure in place.

Market / Competition / Non-Competition Agreements
The business has never felt the need to advertise bearing testimony to the fact that it enjoys exceptionally high levels of repeat business from a large and loyal customer base.

There is however a comprehensive and attractive website detailing the services and facilities offered and a detailed product brochure.
