Indian Takeaway Delivery South London With Further Potential For Sale London, United Kingdom Advert ref: TA523CG Business description VIRTUALLY UNOPPOSED in DENSELY POPULATED AREA SOUTH LONDON
HIGH FOOTFALL NEAR TO RAILWAY STATION
POTENTIAL FOR OTHER TYPES OF CUISINE
Location
Situated within a densely populated area of South London in a small parade near the entrance to a railway station. The business is virtually unopposed and has vast potential for expansion. Restricted parking is available outside and in the numerous residential roads nearby. There is a parking space to the rear of the shop and after 6pm parking outside the shop is unrestricted.
NOTE
In our opinion this business will benefit significantly from the plan to extend the East London Line to West Croydon via Norwood Junction. The project (which should be finished by February 2011 in time for the 2012 Summer Olympics in London) would connect Norwood Junction with Dalston Junction and Highbury & Islington in North London for interchange with First Capital Connect and the Victoria Line. Also as part of the Thameslink upgrade there are plans to introduce direct trains to Brighton, Peterborough Cambridge and Bedford.
