In the heart of Alice Springs lies a beacon of community spirit and entrepreneurial endeavour: the local newsagency and Tatts outlet, exceptionally well located and positioned within the town's busiest shopping centre. For nearly two decades, this establishment has served as more than just a hub for news and lottery tickets; it has been a gathering place, a provider of essentials, and a purveyor of unique gifts and treasures.
Operated with dedication by an ownership couple and supported by two casual staff members since 2007, this business boasts a profitable history and satisfied customers. Its shelves feature locally crafted artworks, scented candles, literary treasures, and fashionable clothing, catering to diverse tastes.
Now, as the owners embark on a new chapter of their lives, an exciting opportunity arises for those with a passion for entrepreneurship and community engagement. The sale of The Paper Shoppe presents a chance to tap into Alice Springs' vibrant tourism scene, capitalising on the town's status as one of Australia's premier destinations. Moreover, it offers the freedom and flexibility of running your own business, infused with the satisfaction of serving a loyal and appreciative clientele.
