An Artisan Bakery, Take-Away & Cafe Business for sale
Torquay, Devon
Maybe one of the most desirable trading spots within the much sought-after all-round busy Harbour Town of Torquay, Devon. This rustic artisan bakery, take-away, and café is situated near the water's edge and benefits from beautiful views over the marina. It comes with modern high 3-phase spec ovens and an array of equipment that allows the owners to make light work of the day-to-day food preparation and servery for this successful business. Owner-operated without the need for staff and occupying a prime location on Victoria Parade, which benefits from exceptional high footfall and good passing vehicle traffic.
Torquay is a seaside resort town on the English Channel in Devon, Southwest England. Known for its beaches such as Babbacombe and cliffside Oddicombe, its coastline is nicknamed the English Riviera. The resort is popular all year round and is situated near the cities of Plymouth and the cathedral city of Exeter with its International airport. Also adjoining Torquay is the neighbouring town of Paignton on the west of the bay, and across from it sits the fishing port of Brixham. The premises are ideally situated on Victoria parade, which is in the tourism centre. It benefits from high footfall and runs adjacent to the harbour with its beautiful boats, al fresco dining, and nightlife.
The business is run by a husband-and-wife team, without the need for any staff, and produces all kinds of delectable breads, croissants, pastries, and much more. Also, they offer drinks to-go and have their own sitting area should the customer wish. The business opens for shorter periods during the winter months and stays open for longer during the summer months. The owners have only in the last few weeks ventured into the ‘Just Eat’ take-away delivery, and we, the agents, feel there is tremendous scope to expand on the product range and offer it to a wider audience and subsequently greatly improve the turnover/net profit. Only following a successful viewing will the trading accounts be made available.
