Situated on a leasehold basis, the restaurant commands an annual rent of £22,500 and is generating weekly sales of around £7,200.

It has also undergone a major refurbishment, with more than £100,000 invested in upgrades to the premises, fixtures, fittings, and equipment.

A newly installed bar also features, with a fully fitted commercial kitchen, and ample storage space.

A spokesman for the current owners said: “A fantastic opportunity to acquire a fully refurbished, fully fitted Nepalese & Indian restaurant in Hamilton, ready for a new owner to take over and trade immediately.”

“Based on the current level of trading, we believe an experienced owner with the right kitchen and operational expertise could potentially build the business towards £10,000 weekly turnover.

“However, this would depend on the new owner’s operation, staffing, opening hours and marketing.”

Currently, the restaurant trades mainly during the evenings and operates a limited delivery and takeaway service.

The owners believe there is significant potential to increase revenue by introducing regular lunch hours and expanding the delivery and takeaway side of the business.

The restaurant is being sold because the current owners do not have a professional kitchen background, and managing the kitchen operation and staffing has proven challenging.

They have built up a strong local reputation and a base of returning customers, but feel the business would benefit from someone with the right culinary and operational experience.

The sale is aimed at serious buyers only and is described as ideal for a chef seeking to own their own restaurant, an existing operator looking to expand, or an entrepreneur interested in a ready-to-trade hospitality business.

Proof of investment and trading information can be provided to serious prospective buyers.

The restaurant also benefits from an established online presence and strong customer reviews.

Its current turnover is estimated at around £374,400 per year.
