Full Description: - About Base Camp is a long established camping shop set up by our client in this busy area of Arbroath in 2001. The business offers a range of camping, walking and climbing equipment and accessories. It has become very well known in this area and beyond, and has a strong base of regular customers in place. The business benefits from a good amount of additional trade generated by website traffic and this excellent trading position. Our client has ensured the business has an excellent reputation and superb reviews are noted on Google. Base Camp has a comprehensive website in place.

The business is ideally suited to a hands-on owner-operator with a good knowledge of the outdoor industry, and would ideally be an outdoor enthusiast themselves. This presents an excellent opportunity for a new owner-operator or team to take the business to the next level.

- Premises Details Base Camp operates from the ground floor 619.5 sq ft double fronted property on a busy road. The premises have large branding and signage on display above a fully glazed frontage. Inside, the business has a service counter, changing room, along with various wall mounted displays and hanging rails for stock items. To the rear are two ample storage areas and toilet facilities. The shop is fitted with secure metal railings to the front. The premises has a fully operational and monitored alarm system in place. All areas are fully equipped and presented well. The business currently benefits from Small Business Rates Relief. Purchasers should enquire with relevant local authorities to confirm the rates payable.

- Summary This long established business occupies an enviable trading position in a busy and sought after area of Arbroath. Our client has secured a strong customer base and exceptional reputation. There is plenty of scope to develop the business further with the introduction of new product lines - potentially outdoor sports equipment, and a strong marketing drive with focus on online sales and website use. This proposition would ideally suit an owner operating team who could push the business forward and build upon the solid and impressive trading foundations. Early viewings are strongly advised.
