Business description
This is an opportunity to acquire an established two-unit dessert business built on a simple, systemized retail model with consistent customer demand and long-standing market presence. Both locations have been operating successfully for over a decade, demonstrating durability, repeat traffic, and a concept that continues to resonate with families and local communities year after year. The business operates under a self-serve dessert format, intentionally designed to minimize operational complexity while supporting efficient staffing and predictable daily workflows. Each location is fully staffed and supported by franchisor systems, supplier relationships, and standardized processes. Revenue is primarily driven by in-store sales, complemented by third-party delivery, a franchisor-supported loyalty rewards program, and group-oriented offerings such as parties, events, and fundraising initiatives. Operating two locations allows for shared oversight, operational leverage, and economies of scale not available in single-unit concepts. Performance reflects consistent growth and strong year-to-date momentum, reinforcing the stability of the underlying demand. The sale includes approximately $150,000 in furniture, fixtures, and equipment (FF&E), along with minimal inventory requirements, making this a capital-efficient, turn-key acquisition. Additional upside exists through increased local marketing, deeper community engagement, and further utilization of existing brand-supported channels. This opportunity is well suited for an owner-operator or multi-unit buyer seeking a proven, easy-to-manage retail operation with recurring demand and room for continued improvement.
