Amusement Parks ; Other Arts, Entertainment & Amusement Businesses

A rare opportunity to aquire a business with no real competition! This leisure facility was set up by the vendor little over a year ago to provide a truly unique skating experience to its customers. Situated in one of the busiest retail centres in Warrington the vendor has installed a large synthetic ice rink within its own premises that can cater for up to 60 skaters at any one time. As well as providing this rather unique skating facility the site also has a caf area, large seating and various games and amusements to ensure any family s visit is an enjoyable one. As the rink is synthetic ongoing running costs and maintenance costs are very low. The vendor has already invested heavily within the business but feels the business needs further investment in a soft play are to ensure ongoing and future penetration in the highly lucrative family leisure market is achieved. Equipment: As well as the rink itself the vendor has invested in a large stock of skates, seating , kitchen equipment and branding of the business. In addition to this the business has a state of art EPOS system. Current investment to date is circa 80,000. Key Strengths: One of the real strengths of this business is the fact that there are only a few ice rinks of any description in the region and none that are as accessible as this particular one. It enjoys good levels of passing trade and has multiple revenue streams , be it skaters revenues, caf sales or amusement commissions. The business also has relatively low running costs in terms of maintenance and care. Growth and Expansion/Opportunities: The business is in its infancy and sales are expected to increase as the business becomes more established. Membership schemes will certainly help this as would investment in a soft play area(planning permission has been approved for this)as this would enable families with younger children to utilise the sites facilities more, not just for skating but for food and drinks whilst shopping. It would also mean the business could cater for a wider audience in relation to Childrens Parties , Promotions and even Corporate events. Furthermore the business model could be rolled out as a franchise opportunity.
