Why Are We Selling?
More Than Sushi is a family-run business operated by a husband-and-wife team. After much consideration, we’ve made the difficult decision to sell due to personal circumstances.
The business remains open and trading as usual.
How the Business Is Run

A Look Around More Than Sushi
Lease and Running Costs
The current rent is just £800 per month, helping to keep overheads low.
The landlord is willing to offer a new lease to a suitable buyer, subject to satisfactory references and agreement on the final terms. The premises are commercial only and do not include living accommodation.
We currently pay no business rates. Whether a new owner would qualify for business rates relief will depend on their individual circumstances.
Transferring Accounts, Software and Services
More Than Sushi is set up with Uber Eats, Deliveroo, Just Eat and Bournemouth Eats, alongside its own website, online ordering system, customer apps, EPOS and other business software.
Delivery platform accounts, software, subscriptions, online ordering services and other third-party accounts are subject to each provider’s terms and approval. A new owner may need the provider’s approval, or may need to register new accounts in their own name.
We cannot guarantee that existing accounts, ratings, reviews or listings will transfer to a new owner, as these depend on each provider’s requirements. A new owner will need to register the food business in their own name and receive a new food hygiene rating following inspection.
We can assist with reasonable account transfer requests where permitted. Current arrangements and costs can be discussed with interested buyers.
Handover & Optional Paid Assistance
Previous experience in catering or food service is essential.
The sale includes a practical handover of up to one week, helping the new owner become familiar with the equipment, ordering systems and day-to-day running of More Than Sushi.
Formal sushi-chef training is not included in the sale.
Both current owners would also be open to discussing occasional paid work after the sale, including kitchen assistance, operational support or weekend cover.
Any additional work would be arranged separately, subject to mutual agreement on availability, duties and payment. This is not included in the £20,000 purchase price.
