About the store
This large store was first opened in 1987 and quickly became a cornerstone of the local community.

The store houses 5 spacious and modern testing rooms and one dedicated Audiology testing room.
The store is consistently one of the strongest performers in the region, and due to personal reasons it is with a heavy heart that the selling Partner is exiting the business. The store is a fantastic example of how Enhanced Optical Services can be utilised to improve the care provided to patients and in turn, the store’s performance. 80% of the store’s income is from the NHS, which presents an outstanding opportunity to develop the private revenue in this affluent town. Alongside the optical business. there is also a growing Audiology business. The Camborne store is the Audiology hub for four spoke stores located in nearby area.
