Award-Winning Bakery | Prime Coastal Icon | 3 Days per week

  • $150,000 plus SAV

Description

Own a coastal icon where the “queue out the door” is a daily tradition.

Strategically positioned in a bustling regional Victorian hub with a storied past that draws both tourists and locals alike, this award-winning destination is far more than a bakery; it is a high-volume institution and the definitive morning ritual for the Western District.

Anchored by time-honoured baking artistry, this award-winning bakery draws loyalists from across the western district, specifically for its signature sourdough and artisan pastry.

Operating from a high-spec, open-plan facility, the bakery serves as a vital social hub – a place where the “theatre” of traditional baking meets a thriving modern brand.

Why This Business Stands Apart:
• Renowned Award-Winning Excellence: Acclaimed bakery that boasts prestigious industry awards and regional accolades.
• Unrivalled Brand Loyalty: The “queue out the door” ensures a massive, dedicated following and a reputation that ensures consistent revenue from day one.
• Turnkey Transition: A fully systemised business with a skilled team in place, with the current owner willing to facilitate a handover and onboarding period for the new owner.
• Scalable Operations: Opportunity to build upon the current operations and scale business hours to suit your lifestyle or scale through to wholesale expansion.
• Regional Destination Status: A primary tourism and culinary destination attracting regular clientele from a 100km+ radius.
• High-Spec Infrastructure: Operates out of an open-plan facility designed for transparency and efficiency.

This is a turnkey operation with a powerful brand legacy. It offers an incoming owner the chance to inherit a high-performing asset with a built-in, obsessive customer base.

Whether you are an experienced operator looking for a flagship location or an investor seeking a business with “destination” status, this artisan powerhouse represents the gold standard of regional hospitality.

Opportunity

  • This is a prime opportunity to take ownership of an established market leader with a dominant local share and a proven, award-winning formula. The business operates as a high-volume regional destination, sustained by a fiercely loyal customer base and a high-spec facility built for consistent, quality output. With its brand reputation and significant heritage, the operation is perfectly positioned for a new owner to leverage the existing infrastructure for scale and expansion. This is a rare chance to take over a reliable, peak-performing bakery where the foot traffic is guaranteed and the foundation for long-term expansion is already firmly in place.

Paul Leach

Hospitality Consultant, Certified Exit Planning Advisor, Licensed Business Broker in NSW, SA, QLD, VIC @ GSE Hospitality Brokers

I grew up in the food business, my parents owned two very successful restaurants. I have fond memories of working alongside them from a very early age.

All through my school years I knew that I wanted to be a part of the hospitality industry and the day that I started at college could not come quickly enough. I spent three enjoyable years learning my trade and left college to join my parents in their second restaurant.

In 1992 my parents decided that the time was right for them to sell up and I felt it was also the right time for me to go out on my own.

In 1993 I opened my first Cafe called “Hogarth’s” and that is where it all began. Over the following 25 years, I built and sold nine food businesses. I loved every minute (well most of it) and learnt a lot about how the sale process works, I also learned some very valuable lessons.

I love the food industry and wanted to crack double digits and open shop number ten, unfortunately, the two things that I value the most in my life, my marriage and my health probably would not have lasted if I had done that so I called it a day

I always felt that there was a better way to sell cafes and food businesses and that is where the idea for GSE came from. My vision was to build a specialist firm of hospitality brokers that could make the sales process as straightforward as possible for the owners of hospitality businesses in Australia.

I am now using the experience I gained selling my own businesses as well as selling a lot of other people’s businesses to lead the team of very talented brokers at GSE.

I would love the opportunity to show you more about how the approach that GSE take can help you to sell your business for the price that you want and on your terms.

If you are looking for a specialist Hospitality Broker who has walked the walk and fully understands the industry and all of the nuances of the sales process then I would love to hear from you.
