Property description
Presenting an exceptional opportunity to acquire a renowned hair and beauty salon with a rich history spanning over 25 years. Located in the sought-after suburb of Drayton, Norfolk, this salon has built a solid reputation for delivering high-quality hair and beauty services. The business, incorporated 17 years ago, has grown steadily, supported by a dedicated team of long-serving staff and apprentices. Situated just a few miles from Norwich City centre, in Drayton, the salon benefits from a growing suburban population due to many new housing developments in the area.
The salon is recognised as a supplier and user of one of the top three cosmetic hair brands globally, enhancing its prestige and customer trust. In addition to its core services, the salon generates additional rental income from a beautician who operates on-site. The current owners are seeking to retire and pass on this thriving business, which is realistically priced based on a conservative multiple of ebitda and the high demand for commercial properties in the area. The salon boasts an active social media presence and a professional, attractive website, ensuring continuous engagement with its customer base.
The business
This well-established hair and beauty salon has been a staple in the community for over two decades. Known for its quality service and customer satisfaction, the salon offers a range of fashion styles tailored to individual client needs. The business has a strong, well-known brand name and operates with two directors, the beautician and three stylists. The salon’s consistent growth is attributed to its excellent reputation, low staff turnover, and prime location in a high population catchment area.
The business operates out of an extremely well presented freehold property, presenting a rare opportunity for ownership. Alternatively, a leasehold option is also available subject to the grant of a new 5 year lease. It is being sold as a going concern, including the freehold or leasehold interest, goodwill, fixtures, fittings, and equipment. Stock is payable in addition to the sale price at valuation. The sale is to be structured as a company share sale, as opposed to an asset and goodwill sale.
Premises
The salon operates from a freehold site (leasehold option also available) with a rateable value of £7,800. The hairdressing salon floor area totals 55 m2 (592 sqft), offering ample space for its eight cutting positions and two wash basins. The premises include a separate beautician room with rear access, which was extended approximately ten years ago and has been recently refurbished. Additional facilities include a staff room/utility room, a toilet/w.c, a stock cupboard, and an outside seating area. There is also an outside storage shed for cleaning materials.
The premises benefits from ample dedicated car parking spaces, with the potential to accommodate more than six vehicles. The salon operates Wednesday and Thursday from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm, Friday from 9:00 am to 7:00 pm, and Saturday from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm. It is closed on Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday, with the beautician available on Tuesdays.
