Irvine's Bakery 18-22 Eglington Street, Beith, North Ayrshire

Both the properties are situated in North Ayrshire with the bakery facility, shop, café/coffee shop and two flats in Beith and the second retail shop being in Dalry which is approximately five miles to the south-west. Both towns are of a similar size with 5,500-6,000 inhabitants and Glasgow, Scotland’s largest city is reachable within a 30 minute drive to the north-east. Other nearby towns include Kilmarnock, Irvine and Saltcoats.

Our clients have owned and operated Irvine’s Bakery since 1913, moving to Beith in 1920 then opening up the additional retail unit in Dalry thereafter. A multi award winning business, including being a former World Scotch Pie Champion amongst many others accolades such as Scottish Craft Baker of the year on several occasions.

They have always maintained that the best judge of their products is the public and the business has a great reputation throughout North Ayrshire, especially in Dalry and Beith where the shops are located.

As well as the usual bakery goods such as pies, sausage rolls, bridies, rolls and all the rest, Irvines also offer a wide and varied range of hot and cold lunch options too. All the sweet delights are also made in house too with something for everyone. The bakery facility is kitted out with all the necessary equipment (full list of fixtures and fittings on request) and supplies both the shops with all products.

There is also a coffee shop within the Beith property, which is currently unused, this could be reopened with ease or let out.

The Beith property also includes 2 flats on the upper floors, both are currently unoccupied and require upgrading and refurbishment then could be used by owner, staff or let out.

Overall, this is an exceptional opportunity to take on a high turnover bakery business with a substantial freehold property in Beith and additional unit in Dalry, experience as a baker would be a benefit but the operation could be restructured to suit.
