Full Description: FISH AND CHIPS TAKEAWAY in Silsden for Sale.<br /><br />Kirkgate Fisheries is a long-established and highly regarded fish and chip shop in the heart of Silsden. Operating successfully for over 60 years and under current ownership for more than 20, the business offers proven demand, exceptional revenue per trading hour, and significant growth potential.<br /><br />Trading is currently limited by choice, with only two short sessions per week (Thursdays and Fridays), yet generates average weekly turnover of £2,100+ (c. £250 per hour). The business also closes for approximately 11 weeks per year for personal and VAT reasons, not due to lack of demand. This presents an immediate opportunity to extend hours and substantially increase revenue.<br /><br />For the year ending 30 April 2025, adjusted net profits were £32,789, based on restricted trading and before full-time owner remuneration. The owners currently work a combined 26.25 hours per week. A more hands-on operator could materially increase turnover and earnings.<br /><br />Following the closure of nearby competitors in Addingham, the shop now benefits from strong passing and seasonal trade from Bolton Abbey towards Keighley.<br /><br />PREMISES & ACCOMMODATION - The substantial, well-equipped premises include a fully fitted sales area with three-pan range, preparation kitchen, chipping room, storage, WC, and dual front and rear access providing good ventilation. The business is turnkey and ready for immediate operation.<br /><br />Above the shop is a self-contained two-bedroom flat, producing £575 per month (£6,900 annually), offering stable rental income with potential for uplift, short-term letting (subject to consent), or owner occupation. A rear outbuilding provides secure storage, including for cyclists on the Tour de France route, with the Leeds–Liverpool Canal also nearby.<br /><br />LOCATION & FUTURE DEMAND - Prominently positioned within a busy local amenity hub, the business serves a population of approximately 8,500 with consistent footfall. Significant residential development is underway, with 500+ homes completed, 138 under construction, and 780+ planned.<br /><br />Silsden benefits from strong family demographics, with excellent local schools including South Craven School and a new purpose-built primary school, supporting long-term demand.<br /><br />Commercial EPC Band C.
