Two prime business opportunities arise across Armagh’s busiest shopping streets

Two prime business opportunities have arisen across two of Armagh’s busiest shopping streets – each presenting a wealth of opportunity.

A longstanding and well established butchery business on Armagh’s Upper English Street presents the first, having entered the property market as a going concern.

Known simply as ‘The Butcher’, the business has for many decades occupied the prime retail unit opposite St Patrick’s Trian entrance.

Owned and managed by Richard Irwin, the popular business is now available as a “turn-key opportunity” with offers invited via Redian Real Estate Agents.

The shop features wood-panelled ceilings, bright lighting, and an open layout on a busy shopping street with constant footfall.

A property listing describes the fully-fitted butcher’s shop as being “ready immediately” including fully installed refrigerated display counters, multiple weighing scales, stainless steel preparation areas, and a rotisserie unit to the front and large preparation area and fridge to rear.

All equipment is described as being in “excellent condition and fully operational”.

Staff are also provided the benefit of secure, rear parking with road access.

It should be noted that the business is for sale only as the premises is rented.

‘The Butcher’ will be the second independently owned butcher’s shop to enter the property market in Armagh in less than two years.

Additionally, the former premises of ‘Our Secret Boutique’ has also been listed for sale.

The property on Scotch Street is currently listed with Property Link Estate Agents with viewing by appointment.

The commercial space extends over three floors with direct frontal access to Scotch Street and rear access to Linenhall Street.

A property listing describes the purchase as “an opportunity not to be missed” with the premises presenting suitability to a number of different uses.

Currently set up as a clothing boutique, there is ample storage space and on-street parking available close by.
