CoGoGo are delighted to welcome to the market The Art Gallery, a highly rated Gallery/Bespoke Framers in Ruislip, Greater London.

The business was first established back in the 1950's, with our client taking over in 1991. The business is extremely popular within the local area, building up an excellent reputation and regular customer base.

The Art Gallery has now come to the open market due to our client's desire to retire.

The business is a stylish gallery showcasing a selection of artwork from the country’s most popular artists. The framing service begins with a friendly and experienced consultation and ends with the customer's framing completed to the company’s high standards and by the team in the on site workshop.

The sale will include the company website and social media platforms and the business enjoys great visibility on the internet with impressive reviews such as;


  • “Walked in a couple of weeks ago with no clue about picture framing or what I wanted. Greeted by two members of staff who both said, just bring the print in and they would take care of everything. Wonderful advice with options explained without making me feel awkward because I really had no idea myself. A week later I got my picture back with a stunning frame and mount that suited it perfectly, just like the lady said it would. Thanks guys, will definitely be back”
  • “Would highly recommend this locally run personal business”
  • “Am delighted with the service and helpfulness I received here”
  • “I visited this business to have a painting framed. I am so please with the finished product. The recommended glass was amazing and worth paying the extra.
