Business Information

The sandwich bar is located directly opposite Lewes Railway Station. This is a very busy station with 5 platforms and mainline rail services running direct to London Victoria. Many commuters use the station and there is also a large college nearby. Lewes is an affluent town with a charming atmosphere attracting many tourists and visitors throughout the year. It is the county town of East Sussex and is situated about 8 miles North East of Brighton.

Having established the business in 2008, the current husband and wife team have built an excellent reputation and there are many loyal and regular customers. Together with takeaway drinks, the shop serves a range of hot and cold snacks including sandwiches, filled rolls, baguettes, wraps, toasties, pasties, pizzas, jacket potatoes, sausage rolls, salad boxes and cakes. The business is very professionally run and has also been awarded a 5-star “Scores on the Doors” food hygiene rating. After 8 years of ownership, this is a genuine retirement sale.

A straightforward and profitable business which is well-established and well-regarded in the local area, this would be an ideal “ready-made” business opportunity for a couple or joint working owners. Trading Monday to Friday only, we understand that current weekly takings are approximately £4,000. The vendors used to open longer hours including Saturdays, and takings were even higher at that time. Enterprising new owners could extend the trading hours again and maybe extend the range of food available as well. We are informed by the vendors that, with extended trading hours, there is the potential for joint working owners to earn up to £80,000 a year.
