About the Business
- Years in Operation
- 9
- Employees
- 6 (3 Full-time, 3 Part-time)
- Facilities & Assets
- The business operates from a leased retail location with favorable lease terms. The landlord is responsible for the building structure and major mechanical systems.
The tenant owns all business-related assets, including deli equipment, refrigeration units, shelving, point-of-sale system, and other fixtures not permanently attached to the building. All equipment is fully operational and maintained as part of daily operations.
The space is fully built out and equipped for continued operation with no immediate capital improvements required.
Inventory will be sold separately at closing based on current wholesale value. - Market Outlook / Competition
- The business is located in a small, established community with limited direct competition. It is currently the only deli and convenience store in town offering both prepared food and retail products, making it a central and consistent destination for local residents and visitors.
The lack of nearby alternatives for everyday retail items and deli offerings provides a steady customer base and repeat business. The store benefits from its role as a convenient, go-to location within the community.
While there are restaurants and other food options in the broader area, there is no direct competitor offering the same combination of convenience retail and deli service within the immediate market. - Opportunities for Growth
- The business offers multiple opportunities for growth, both operationally and through expansion of the existing space.
The main retail level includes approximately 3,200 square feet of usable space, with an additional 3,200 square feet in the basement currently used for storage. This provides significant flexibility for expansion of product offerings, increased prep or production capacity, or additional revenue streams.
A clear opportunity exists to increase revenue by restoring extended operating hours, particularly during peak seasonal periods. Historically, longer hours have contributed meaningfully to overall sales and profitability.
Additional growth opportunities include expanding prepared food offerings, increasing retail product variety, and further optimizing inventory and ordering systems to improve efficiency.
