Thats the kind of business I would love to have.

But looking at several in the past, I always prefer the new business approach.
The business is valued at £125,000 and then you have £25,000ish a year rent, £10,000ish a year rates, plus 6 staff in the summer.

Is the stock really worth £125000??? as goodwill doesnt exist anymore.

They must be selling a massive amount of surfboards to warrant all that

IMO

He is Europe's largest manufacturer of custom built surf boards so yes he does sell a few ...
