Specialist gin store in Durham city centre seeks new owner

Durham Ginstitute, a specialist gin store and online business situated in Durham, has been brought to market via Christie & Co, with a £45k leasehold price tag.

Occupying a high street location within Durham city centre, the store offers over 200 gin brands and hosts gin tasting experiences, while the website offers a delivery service of its gins across the UK.

Established by the current owner a year and a half ago, Durham Ginstitute is still in its infancy and presents an ideal opportunity for a new owner to take on an established business with the website, fixtures and fittings, staff and trade suppliers in place and tremendous growth potential.

Andrew Birnie, Director at Christie & Co, who is handling the sale, said, “Durham city centre attracts visitors from all over the world and families visiting students at the university.

‘Having already established a good reputation among both local residents and travellers who enjoy the special range of gins available, Durham Ginstitute would ideally suit a first time business owner or a licensed business owner looking to add a retail stream to their portfolio.”
