Located in Stow, a charming village in the Scottish Borders, the convenience store and Post Office is heavily relied upon by locals, being the sole store within the area. The store, which provides a range of convenience items and features an Amazon hub, also benefits from commuter trade with Stow being bisected by the A7 road to Edinburgh.
The store has been owned and operated by Stewart and Alison Runciman for the last 18 and a half years, and they are now selling to retire.
This is a fantastic opportunity to acquire an unopposed store in an ideal location, and a new owner may wish to expand the store's offering by introducing hot food and drinks for commuting customers.
Liam Bain, Business Agent at Christie & Co, who is handling the sale, comments, “This is a great opportunity to purchase a long-standing village shop and Post Office located in the commuter village of Stow in the Scottish Borders. The business is now available for leasehold sale, with a new long-term lease being offered. This well-established business, a cornerstone of the community, offers a variety of goods and essential services, including groceries, newspapers, postal services, banking facilities, and travel-related services.”
