Why Buy This Business?

Our owners have secured 18 gaming machine licenses to go into this business. As owners of the building, upon a sale of the business they will become landlords. The opportunity is for an astute operator to get along-side our owners and work with them on the installation and renovations around this with two machines to be operational by November and the rest following. It’s a great time of year to be going into Picton with busy summer trading ahead.
