Part time, Home based Sweet Delivery Business for Sale in Basingstoke, Hampshire
PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL
PART-TIME, HOME-BASED CONFECTIONERY DELIVERY / ONLINE STORE BUSINESS FOR SALE, BASINGSTOKE (HAMPSHIRE) - THIS BUSINESS CAN BE RELOCATED ANYWHERE
BUSINESS OVERVIEW
A part-time confectionery local delivery/online-store business, based in Basingstoke, is now seeking new ownership.
The start-up was founded during Q1 of 2023 and has since grown to become one of Basingstoke’s most popular sweet delivery services.
The company offers a same day delivery service in Basingstoke, mainly selling sweet treats including pre-mixed pick ‘n’ mix, chocolate, popcorn, crisps and soft drinks.
The company has the potential to generate monthly sales of £1,500. This is based on part-time trading hours consisting of 3-4 hours a day, 2-3 days per week. Additional time is then invested into purchasing stock, processing customer orders, social media and advertising.
The new owners will have the opportunity to increase turnover by increasing prices, expanding product lines and extending operating times.
The business also includes the sale of a high-value, premium domain name which was recently sold for £750.
A full list of assets included in the sale are available. Key assets included within the purchase include a professionally designed website, a premium domain name, packaging and ready-to-sell stock, as well as essential business-related equipment.
The previous owner ran the business as a sole trader, so this particular transaction will be an asset sale only. This means the buyer will be purchasing the assets and not a limited company.
REASON FOR SALE
The existing owner launched the business with his brother, however he was unable to carry on running the business due to personal circumstances. Therefore, the sole owner has now decided to sell the business to a new owner who’ll be able to focus on growing the business and realising the business’s true value and potential. There is also a lot of value in the stock included within the sale which makes this a lucrative business opportunity.
THE OPPORTUNITY
Ideally, the new owners will have the time to continue to run this successful business part-time during the evenings and help take the business to the next level. The new owner can either continue to run the business as a local delivery service in Basingstoke, or expand by opening it as an online sweet shop.
ASSETS INCLUDED WITHIN THE SALE
Here’s a breakdown of the main assets included within the sale:
- Stock including pick ‘n’ mix, popcorn, soft drinks etc. (Retail Value = £5,000)
- Professionally designed website
- Premium domain name
- E-commerce platform and card-processing account
- Highly active and high-converting social media accounts

CONCLUSION
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a proven and profitable part-time business, that within a few days can start earning you money. Due to the value of the stock included within the sale of the business, the owner has said he would not accept any offers lower than £5,000.
THE NEXT STEPS
