A chippy marketed as a 'gem' has been put up for sale in a Nottinghamshire town. The leasehold for Georgio's on Derby Road in Kirby-in-Ashfield has been priced at £240,000.
The business, which has been established for 20 years, also has a three-bedroom flat above the takeaway. The shop has been leased out but the owner, who has owned the chippy for four years, is now taking back control and offering the takeaway for sale so that he can concentrate on other business interests, according to a Rightmove page.
Veritas Business Sales, who are marketing the chip shop on Rightmove, said: "We believe that there is potential to increase revenue should you wish, by extending the current opening times and having an owner-operator at the helm.

"The business has built a strong reputation within the local community and beyond and as such has a high level of regular and repeat trade. This is a superb opportunity to purchase an established business turnkey takeaway which is a great base to build upon and as such early viewing is highly recommended as this gem is not to be missed."
Georgio's is currently operated by one full time and six part time members of staff and three delivery drivers. They have an average weekly turnover of circa £8,000 operating on 31 hours, according to the chippy's marketer.
The takeaway is said to serve a "fine range" of fish and chips, pies, saveloys, condiments, kebabs, burgers, chicken, pizzas, and cold drinks. The shop's Rightmove page says 70 percent of trade is walk-in with the remaining 30 percent being delivered out through their own website and online portal websites such as Food Hub and Just Eat.
The leasehold term is 20 years, with 11 years remaining - the rent is listed as £16,640 per year. Nottinghamshire Live attempted to contact Georgio's for comment.
