Moreton Bay Cafe | Simple Operation | 40 kg’s coffee per week

Description

Located within the Moreton Bay region of Queensland, a commute of less than 30 minutes to Brisbane’s CBD, within a thriving and fast-growing community, this successful franchise business has been established for over 6 years, with the present owner in charge since 2017.

Benefitting greatly from high visibility on the exterior of a large well maintained shopping complex with ample parking, the cafe is surrounded by major retailers plus an abundance of independents providing consistent footfall throughout the day.

The cafe has undergone recent renovations resulting in a sleek contemporary fit-out with large bi-fold doors which when fully open provide an indoor/outdoor seating plan. The interior is approximately 69sq metres with a small well equipped and easy to manage kitchen, good size counter space and coffee machine. When trading without covid restrictions the cafe can seat up to 20 customers inside and 40 outside.

The business has strong coffee sales of around 40kgs per week, as well as a popular yet easy to produce menu of handcrafted food items such as eggs benedict, breakfast wraps, smashed avo, pizzas, steak sandwiches plus in-house made cakes and muffins.

Supported by a loyal following of locals, tradies, business workers and shoppers visiting the centre, the cafe is known for it’s welcoming vibe and great service. The business also has a strong social media presence.

Currently trading 7 days per week, Monday to Friday 6.30am to 4pm and weekends 6.30am to 2pm, plus additional hours when catering for special functions, the business employs one full-time manager and eight casuals.

A current lease is in place expiring March 2025 + 5 year option

There is huge potential for the new owner to increase turnover significantly by extending opening hours to cater for evening trade as there is strong demand from residents plus a liquor license is already in place.

Wages can also be reduced significantly by an owner/operator working within the business.

The owner is selling due to personal reasons and has priced the business competitively in order to attract a quick sale.

If you are looking to purchase your first cafe or re-locate to a vibrant and fast growing suburb then this profitable franchise business provides a great opportunity.

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.
