Grooming lounge with freehold space in a London shopping centre

About this business

Grooming lounge in a London shopping centre, trading since 2016 from freehold space and run by a team of 4. It offers cuts, shaves and grooming treatments, much of it to passing shoppers. Turnover has fallen from £206k in 2021 to £170k, and EBITDA is £24k, a margin of about 14%. The decline mirrors softer shopping centre footfall. A buyer should consider building a booked client list to reduce reliance on passing trade. Owning the unit removes rent from the costs.

Key investment highlights

  • Freehold unit in a London shopping centre
  • Margin of about 14%
  • Team of 4
  • No rent to pay

Reason for sale

The owners are relocating to Brighton.
