Fish and Chips is still the first choice for fast food!

Fish & Chip takeaway outlets still remain the most popular takeaway business opportunity on the market at this time. They can prove ideal for families with a great number of outlets operating a traditional 5 day week, trading a couple of hours at lunchtime, slightly longer in the evening but still closing relatively early compared to those town centre fast food outlets.

With its own Federation and dedicated press the Fish & Chip industry has enjoyed a renaissance over recent years - considered to be the healthier take-away option, a standard portion of fish and chips contains LESS fat and LESS calories than other takeaway foods, there are only three ingredients, potatoes, fish and batter, you know exactly what you are eating.

Shops vie for coveted awards and top acclaimed TV chefs have moved into the market opening a number of shops. If you would like a piece of the action and are thinking of buying a Fish & Chip shop  but worried about how you would cope, you need not worry, there are professional courses for you to learn the art of frying and most vendors will offer a hand over period together with training.

Sales in Fish and Chip shops throughout the network of 18 Everett Masson & Furby offices have been very good during the recent difficult economic time, with many first time buyers entering the market place; you will be surprised at what you can earn. If you are thinking of buying a Fish and Chip shop, don’t hesitate, now is the time!
