A RANGE of new business opportunities have presented themselves to aspiring entrepreneurs and seasoned investors in Colchester.
Colchester is blessed with a plethora of amazing businesses but for one reason or another some of them have been put up for sale.
Bella's Patisserie, for example, has recently been put on the market for £42,500, having only opened its doors in April.
With its rich history and strategic location, Colchester has become a hotspot for those seeking to enter the world of business or expand their existing ventures.
With that in mind, are six exciting businesses currently available to purchase in the city.
Bella’s Patisserie, Sir Isaacs Walk
Asking price: £42,500
Bella’s Patisserie was opened in April this year by husband and wife duo Isabella Maria and Florin.
The couple launched the eatery with the hope of being able to offer something new to residents and visitors to the city.
The owners have now, however, announced they are selling the business, shocking loyal customers.

The Wine Centre, Great Horkesley
Asking price: £1.5million
The Wine Centre is shutting its doors after the business launched its closing down sale at the end of May.
The shop has been a wine merchant for 60 years, with Anthony and Janet Borges having owned and operated The Wine Centre since 1999, living in an adjoining Georgian country home.
The pair said the business’ impending closure was due to struggling trade, alongside their retirement later this summer when their doors are finally shut.
