The Premier-branded store is seen as a key amenity within the village, providing everyday groceries, essential services, and postal facilities to local residents.

Situated on Railway Terrace, an area historically tied to Sunderland’s rail network and riverside industry, the business plays an important role as a local hub for both shopping and community interaction.

The buyers, including Thayananthan Santhirakumar, are experienced local operators, with a background in running multiple sites in the same area, giving them strong operational knowledge and understanding of the local market.

Thayananthan added, “This is our fourth acquisition in the North East and we are very excited with our latest acquisition as we look to continue to invest in the region. We would like to thank Robert at Christie & Co for once again introducing this quality retail site.”

Rob O’Brien, Senior Business Agent – Retail & Leisure at Christie & Co, who managed the sale process said, “The buyer moved quickly to acquire the business off market, aware that well-located, well-performing businesses in strong residential areas attract significant interest.

“This transaction underlines the sustained demand for convenience retail opportunities with clear and reliable trading potential.”

South Hylton Convenience Store was sold at an undisclosed sum.
