Freehold Beach for Oyster Farming


Ref.EB020

Location Highlands of Scotland

Asking Price £ 175,000

Confidential offered for sale

Asking price includes:

Freehold Beach area circa 1.1 kilometres wide and 0.55 kilometres to low water mark
Superb Location
Extremely lucrative margins possible
Previously used for Oyster Farming
Finance available to buy this business subject to status. All regulated business is passed to independent financial advisors who are regulated by the FSA

Business profile:

A rare opportunity to acquire a significant Beach location, ideally suited for Oyster Farming, but could easily be used for alternative purposes. The beach has previously been used for farming oysters and would also prove to be a valuable asset that should continue to appreciate.

Key Opportunities:

The size of the plot allows for a conservative farm site of 12,880 trestles, each capable of holding 10 bags. The oysters take an average of 3 years to mature, which means that with 250 oysters per bag, the gross income at 20 pence per oyster could easily exceed £2,000,000 per annum.

Premises:

The Beach is freehold and measures circa 1.1 kilometres by 0.55 kilometres (variable due to tide line).
Financial profile:
All financial discussions will take place directly between the Vendor and all interested parties under the auspices of Turner Butler.

The Farm doesn’t currently generate any revenue due to the ill health of the current owner.
Support and Training

The current owner would be more than happy to give advice and guidance to the new owner.
Reason for Sale:

The business is for sale only due to the present owners’ ill health and that is reflected in the current turnover.
