Barnett Brothers Sold to Aashapuri Properties
Kings Corporate is pleased to announce the successful sale of Barnett Brothers, a long-established and highly regarded convenience store located on Corsham High Street, Wiltshire, to Aashapuri Properties Limited.
Established in 1940, Barnett Brothers began trading as a traditional newsagent before growing into a trusted convenience store meeting the everyday needs of the local community. For more than eight decades, the business has proudly served the friendly neighbourhood of Corsham, building a loyal customer base through its strong focus on quality products, personal service and community values. The business had been operated by the current owner for 22 years prior to the sale.
Barnett Brothers occupies a prominent and highly visible trading position in the very heart of Corsham, a historic market town on the south-western edge of the Cotswolds. The business benefits from strong footfall generated by surrounding quality residential dwellings and passing tourist trade.
The business trades from an attractive late 18th-century ashlar stone property, arranged over three storeys, with a well-presented single-fronted shop at ground floor level. Included in the sale is a spacious three-bedroom self-contained residential accommodation above the shop, offering either comfortable owner occupation or the opportunity to generate additional rental income.
Having successfully operated as a retail outlet for many years, Barnett Brothers earned an excellent reputation for supplying newspapers, magazines, cards, food and general convenience goods, all delivered with a warm, friendly and distinctly local service. The store operates seven days a week and is fully equipped with a comprehensive range of fixtures, fittings and a full CCTV security system.
Aashapuri Properties Limited was identified as an ideal buyer by Oliver Edwards to continue the successful operation of the business and build upon its long-standing reputation.
