The business has developed a strong search engine presence, ranking number one for several search terms in both English and Spanish. Additionally, its growing Facebook community of over 1500 fans serves as a valuable promotional resource. The company has successfully hosted pop-up events in cities like Manchester, showing significant demand for similar events in other major UK cities.
Key website features include a mobile-friendly version, over 45 shareable recipes, and integrations with payment processors like PayPal. The sale package includes the website, domain, brand materials, and social media accounts, alongside a customer database and supplier relationships. The company has a customer base that largely comprises Peruvians in the UK, adventurous cooks, and British people who have traveled or lived in Peru.
Growth opportunities for the potential buyers include expanding the stock range, improving supply continuity of popular products, and building trade relationships. Currently, the business ranks number one for several related search terms, and receives traffic mainly from organic searches. The site uses Woocommerce on WordPress and is hosted by a well-known provider, with potential for easy transfer post-purchase.
The owner, who plans to relocate and pursue other ventures, believes the business presents significant growth potential with the right investment, especially if the new buyer is based in the UK and can dedicate time to expanding live events and operations.
