Games and consoles shop in an Edinburgh shopping centre

About this business

This Edinburgh shop sells video games, consoles, collectables and accessories from a leased unit inside a shopping centre, where footfall comes from shoppers already in the centre. It has a team of 3. Since 2022 turnover has been broadly flat, at £580k this year, while EBITDA has edged up from £54k to £59k. Trade-in and pre-owned stock help margins. A buyer could keep it as an owner-run shop or add it to an existing games retail group.
