Florist News

that some ppl put there florist shops up for so much money like 89.000 or 78.000 wen all they take is 2000 a week i mean they should really be up for atleast 30 to 40.000 i mean GOD DAYM! haha x

be cheeky and offer them what you think they're worth then!!

If you don't ask you don't get, and there are lots of stupid people out there!

How are you valuing these businesses Alex?

by how much they r turning over .

and thats all?? What about amount of stock that comes with the sale, client contacts, account customers etc??

ha well that aswell

and veiwing other shops aswell helps x

you will also probably be buying the lease, then there is the goodwill, stock, handover, clients, corporates, lots of figures to take into account when valuing a business. Is it a desirable location where they may even close the florist and open as something else?? Cannot go by t/o alone, mind you that is a Blonde essex mentality ??

Me on the other hand agree with Alex, If u r selling your shop with a not so big T/o then the price should reflect that, u talking about stock. a shop with that t/o wont require much stock, Clients cant be toooo many of them to get excited about, Desirable location, obviously not for the business in mind "floristry", if you are thinking of closing the florist and start something else,,, Then why buy a florist, or any going concern, there are plenty of empty shops out there.

If there is a t/o on the lower end of the market then your profit is also gonna be smaller unless the previous owner was either Dipping their hand too much in the cash side or not very good at the job in hand.
