Hilton Smythe are pleased to have been given the opportunity to manage the
sale of Goodfellas which is a well - established Takeaway and Restaurant with a
renowned reputation amongst residents. This is a superb opportunity to take on
a high turnover local business in an area teeming with customers.
Goodfellas was founded by the current owner approximately two years ago when
he identified a gap in the market. The business has been a real labour of love
for him and has flourished under his ownership already having an impressive
number of regular customers and a burgeoning reputation.
A considerable amount of money has been spent ensuring that this is arguably
one of the nicest types of this business in the area.
Alas the business is now being sold, albeit reluctantly and with heavy heart
only due to the vendors wish to open a larger version of this shop in another
area, he is keen to see his beloved takeaway/ restaurant pass to an ambitious
and entrepreneurial new owner who can take this already thriving business to
the next level.
Goodfellas offers an extensive range of food that is freshly prepared to
order, on the premises using local ingredients wherever possible. Customers
can eat in the restaurant, collect their orders of have their food delivered.
The extensive menu includes;
* All Day Breakfasts
* Burgers
* Kebabs
* Goodfellas Wraps
* Southern Fried Chicken
* Chicken Boxes
* Saver Menu
* Curry
* Fries
* Fish
* Salad
* Chicken Wings
* Kids meals
* Desserts
* Drinks
The sale will include the company website () and Facebook page and the
business enjoys great visibility on the internet via websites such as food ,
restaurant , etc.
Scope to improve
* Advertising and marketing campaign, a local leaflet drop always yields good results
* Maximise the use of social media particularly Twitter and Instagram
* Extend the opening hours (12. 00 to 24. 00 would be ideal)
* Consider Sunday opening
* Introduce a range of Pizzas, the vendor has highlighted a real demand for this product
* Explore the possibility of introducing a customer loyalty card / scheme.
* Introduce the sale of ice creams, again a real demand has been highlighted.
Reasons to Buy
* A well - established business with an enviable reputation and many regular customers
* Prime trading position in a busy parade with loads of footfall and free parking
* No expenses spared in making this one of the nicest types of this business in the area.
* All fixtures and fittings included making this a real Turnkey business opportunity
* Ideal owner managed or partnership business
* Low running costs with inexpensive rent and no business rates
* Little or no competition locally
* Current owner happy to offer a handover to ensure the continued success
* Still offers loads of further potential
* Priced to facilitate a quick sale.
Hilton Smythe highly advise early viewing to avoid disappointment.
This lovely business is likely to attract considerable interest. It really
does represent a great opportunity for a lucky new owner.
