Bestway hires adviser to market 37 retail properties across the UK

Bestway has hired a property adviser to market 37 Bargain Booze, Wine Rack, Select Convenience and Central Convenience stores that no longer fit with its strategy.

The stores were acquired in 2018 from the administrators of Bargain Booze.

Now being marketed by Christie & Co, the shops are all held leasehold and the majority have reported record uplifts in trade during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Mark Kaluza, director of retail at Christie & Co, said: “These stores couldn’t have come to market at a better time, when there is heightened interest in convenience retail. We have already agreed a number of deals on these stores since coming to the market. The sector has received a real boost though the Covid-19 crisis as more customers shop locally.”
