Hilton Smythe welcomes to the market an exciting opportunity to acquire (on a
freehold basis) an exceptionally well run and popular ladies’ fashions and
bridal boutique business
The business has been under the careful and meticulous ownership of our client
since 1995, building up an excellent reputation within the industry. The
business has only now come to the open market as our client wishes to leave
the industry after many successful years of trading, and who would like to see
the business pass to someone with the same drive and enthusiasm to take the
business forward.
Xanadu Ladies Fashions and Bridal Boutique has built a reputation for quality,
choice and excellent service in a relaxed, friendly “no pressure” atmosphere,
with customers returning to them year after year from many of the larger
cities such as Aberdeen, Glasgow and Edinburgh, the far North including Wick,
Thurso, Caithness and the Islands including Skye, Orkney, Lewis and Shetland
and with so many customers based out with the Moray area and easy travelling
distance of the shop they are happy to offer a service where they accept
telephone enquiries and post a selection of outfits to a customer for
consideration.
Xanadu also stocks a range of accessories to complete the ensemble. Here
clients can be dressed from head to toe and avoid the horror of aimlessly
wandering around dozens of shops trying to match one item up to another.
The shop stocks over 300 prom dresses/ball gowns/evening dresses in a full
range of sizes. They are also pleased to advertise that they can now provide
stylish modern and younger dresses in sizes up to 32.
The business also operates a very popular hat and fascinator hire and sales
service with over 300 hats to choose from at any given time, with staff giving
you honest and friendly advice to ensure you choose the correct hat/fascinator
to suit.
This outstanding turnkey business trades on its reputation for quality and
service and has outstanding future possibilities.
The current business owner is more than happy to offer a hand over period if
required.
All fixtures and fittings are to be included in the sale of the business.
A tremendous opportunity to own this well - established and popular business,
and early viewings are highly recommended to avoid disappointment.
_Location_
The business is located in a prime trading location on South Street, within
the popular Moray town of Elgin. The business is complemented by being

Street'' by locals and customers.
