Description
Established in 1962, Black's Garden Centre was founded to offer local customers an innovative service at the time: retail horticulture. This family-owned business has continually thrived, adapting and enhancing its operations over the decades. Situated in a strategically significant location on the Old Drogheda to Dublin road, the site provides convenient access to the M1 Motorway and surround coastal areas.
The urban population of East Meath has undergone and continues to undergo significant growth. Moreover, the absence of a dedicated destination garden centre and retail establishment adds to the appeal of Blacks Garden Centre. The location presents an opportunity for expansion to incorporate a dining or coffee outlet.
The Opportunity
Black's Garden Centre presents a unique opportunity to acquire an established and highly esteemed business with significant potential for expansion. The property's strategic location in the North-East provides versatile prospects for redevelopment, such as transforming it into a depot, a logistics centre, or even a car dealership. Additionally, there is potential to integrate a café setting, offering further opportunities for diversification.
