Description

Positioned in a highly visible corner site location in the heart of Kilcoole, County Wicklow, Nicky’s Village Market is a long established farm shop and café, specialising in wholesale and retail sales of fresh fruit, vegetables, baked goods, deli produce and other quality foods from local and national suppliers. With 30 years experience in the retail trade, including eight in their present location, the current owners have firmly established their store as a thriving, high-turnover business selling to both retail and wholesale customers. Previously operated as a car body repair shop capable of accommodating up to 17 vehicles at a time, they transformed the building into a landmark retail outlet. Attracting customers from both the local community and further afield, the business is renowned for its quality produce, friendly service and great coffee. Having spent much time, energy and financial resources developing the building into a go-to retail destination, the current owners have now decided to retire and put their successful business up for sale as a going concern (price available on application to the selling agent). Enjoying an excellent reputation, the café serves both bought-in healthy foods and a vast and varied range of pastries, salads and delicious dishes made on the premises – along with the high quality coffee that has won the business so many positive reviews. The café has two sit-down areas (with a high outage solid fuel stove), accommodating up to twenty people, plus an outdoor seating area accommodating 20 more customers. In addition to its thriving retail trade, Nicky’s Village Market also operates a strong wholesale business supplying, restaurants, cafés, pubs, golf clubs and nursing homes, using a refrigerated van. With quality produce so critical to its business success, the shop’s main fruit and vegetable suppliers are Keeling’s, Total Produce and Madden’s, along with many local suppliers, including suppliers of organic fruit and veg. The shop sources organic health foods mainly from by II Whole Foods, while quite a number of other suppliers provide further varied produce including gluten-free and vegan foods. Other important aspects of the shop’s operations include its solid fuel business, selling coal, briquettes, logs and gas to retail customers, and Christmas trees, sold in December from the lock-up yard, with a portion of the proceeds going to charity.
