A beautifully decorated retail space for selling charcuterie, cheese, and/or delicacies and fresh meat. Located in bustling Mechelen. The store was completely refurbished in 2020 by Frigomil. It exudes a Parisian style, featuring marble finishes and the finest materials, ready to serve as a wonderful business for the next 20 years. The current owner wishes to slow down and is looking to step aside. Currently, the store is part of a group that includes a second store attached to it—though taking over the second store is not mandatory—which sells bread, cheese, prepared dishes, and all kinds of delicacies, all of which are pre-packaged. These shops are unique in the region and are a popular destination for both regular customers and tourists. If desired, both businesses can be redesigned and expanded to include a dining area.
