Full-Service Grocery Store – Cook County
$ 935,000
This well-established, family-owned specialty grocery market has been serving its community in Cook County, Illinois for over 15 years. The business offers a full selection of fresh produce, premium meats, deli items, prepared foods, grocery staples, wine, craft beer, and specialty ethnic products that are difficult to find in traditional big-box stores. The market has built a strong reputation for quality, cleanliness, and customer service, resulting in a loyal and repeat customer base. In addition to traditional grocery sales, the business generates additional revenue through its prepared foods, hot meals, catering services, and specialty product offerings. The store is located in a high-traffic area with strong surrounding demographics and consistent neighborhood support. Operations are streamlined, and the business is fully staffed, making it suitable for either an owner-operator or an investor seeking a stable, community-rooted retail asset. Significant upside exists through expanded catering, enhanced marketing efforts, private-label products, online ordering, delivery integration, and extended hours. With the right vision, this market can continue to grow while maintaining its strong community presence. The seller is willing to provide training to ensure a smooth transition. This business presents meaningful growth opportunities for a motivated buyer looking to build on an already established foundation. Expansion of catering and corporate accounts offers significant upside, particularly with schools, local businesses, community events, and holiday packages. Prepared foods, hot grab-and-go meals, and branded private-label products can further increase margins while strengthening customer loyalty. Enhancing online ordering, delivery integration, and digital marketing would modernize operations and attract a broader demographic. Additional upside exists through refined merchandising, expanded wine and craft beverage offerings, and strategic marketing initiatives such as tasting events, loyalty programs, and community engagement. With focused operational efficiencies and targeted growth strategies, a new owner can increase both revenue and profitability while preserving the strong reputation and loyal customer base already established in Cook County. https://tworld.com/locations/Illinois/stcharles/listings/Full-Service-Grocery-Store-–-Cook-County
Mercer County, New Jersey
Mercer County - Turnkey Specialty Tea Franchise
$ 85,000
Gong Cha Hamilton is a well‑established bubble tea franchise located in a high‑traffic retail corridor in Hamilton in a shopping center anchored by Wal-Mart. Opened three years ago, the store has built a loyal customer base and consistent traffic driven by strong brand recognition and the growing demand for premium bubble tea. The business generates approximately $231,000 in annual revenue, supported by steady repeat customers, third‑party delivery platforms, and the operational efficiencies of a proven franchise system. The store is fully equipped, modern, and turnkey, with all franchise‑required equipment, recipes, and operating procedures in place. Staffing is stable, training is standardized, and the operation runs with minimal ownership involvement - about 10 hours per week. As part of the Gong Cha global network—one of the most recognized bubble tea brands worldwide—the Hamilton location benefits from national marketing, established supply chains, and ongoing franchise support. This is an attractive opportunity for a buyer seeking a streamlined, easy‑to‑operate food and beverage business with strong brand equity and room for growth through local marketing, catering, and expanded delivery channels. The Hamilton Gong Cha is currentlhy operating at a loss under largely absentee ownership, with the current owners dedicating approximately 10 hours per week to oversight while focusing on other business interests. As a result, this limited involvement has contributed to higher labor costs, minimal local marketing, and missed opportunities to optimize daily operations. The store’s current financial losses are primarily a reflection of its structure, not its market potential. A buyer who intends to operate the store directly is positioned to materially improve performance. Gong Cha’s standardized systems, strong brand recognition, and established customer base provide a solid foundation for profitability once active management is in place. Opportunities include: *Reducing labor costs through tighter scheduling and direct oversight *Increasing sales via community engagement, local marketing, and consistent store presence *Driving repeat business through loyalty programs and upselling With active ownership, the store can operate at the margin levels typical of Gong Cha locations in similar markets. This is fundamentally a turnkey franchise location that has been run passively. The financials reflect the absence of day‑to‑day leadership rather than a lack of demand or brand strength. A committed owner‑operator can stabilize operations, reduce expenses, and bring the store to profitability. https://tworld.com/locations/New-Jersey/princeton/listings/Mercer-County-Turnkey-Specialty-Tea-Franchise
Cook County, Illinois
Premium Cookie Franchise – Cook County, Northwest Suburbs
$ 290,000
This brand-new Crave Cookies franchise presents a rare opportunity to acquire a fully built-out location in one of the nation’s fastest-growing gourmet dessert brands before it officially opens. Located in the Northwest Suburbs of Cook County, this shop is scheduled to open by the end of March and features a high-end, modern buildout with premium finishes, new equipment, and an efficient operational layout designed for high-volume service. Crave Cookies is widely recognized for its freshly baked oversized gourmet cookies, rotating weekly flavor drops, and strong social media presence that drives consistent customer excitement and brand loyalty. As the brand continues expanding across the United States, average unit sales have been trending around $800,000 annually, highlighting the strong demand behind the concept. The current owners have invested significant time and capital into this location and have spared no expense throughout the buildout process. A new owner will benefit from stepping into a fully completed franchise location without having to navigate the typical challenges of opening a new concept, including construction delays, permit approvals, inspections, equipment procurement, and franchise onboarding requirements. This opportunity allows a buyer to acquire a turnkey location at a price significantly lower than the cost required to build a new store from scratch today. Due to personal circumstances, the owners have made the difficult decision to sell prior to opening, creating a unique opportunity for an entrepreneur or owner-operator to take over a fully prepared location and launch operations immediately. Because the location has not yet opened, a new owner will have the advantage of launching the business with a clean slate and significant early growth potential. With a strong national brand, modern buildout, and operational infrastructure already in place, the next owner can focus entirely on driving revenue and establishing the location within the local community. Opportunities for growth include building strong community engagement through local school partnerships, neighborhood events, and social media marketing campaigns designed to build early brand awareness. Additional revenue can be generated through catering orders, corporate gifting, party packages, and partnerships with nearby offices and event planners. Seasonal promotions, holiday gift boxes, and branded merchandise can further increase average ticket size and customer frequency. With an engaged owner and strong local marketing execution, this location has the potential to quickly establish itself as a top-performing store within the franchise system. https://tworld.com/locations/Illinois/stcharles/listings/Premium-Cookie-Franchise-–-Cook-County-Northwest-Suburbs
Fort Bend County, Texas
Specialty Cookie Franchise in West Houston
$ 195,000
Outstanding opportunity to acquire a recently opened gourmet cookie franchise for less than half of the seller’s original investment. Located in a desirable Fort Bend County trade area, the business occupies approximately 1,750 square feet in an upscale shopping center surrounded by strong household incomes, population growth, and traffic counts. The store opened in April 2024 and features nearly new equipment and approximately $200,000 in leasehold improvements. The menu includes freshly made gourmet cookies, specialty sodas, catering, and retail merchandise. Sales for 2025 were $552,862 with $44,893 in seller’s discretionary earnings. The lease runs through April 2029 with an additional five-year option. Monthly rent is $6,886, including CAM, taxes, and insurance. The asking price includes approximately $200,000 in leasehold improvements, $100,000 in FF&E, and $5,000 in inventory. This represents a compelling opportunity for a buyer to step into a fully built-out, turnkey operation at a substantial discount to the seller’s total investment. Ideal for an owner-operator who can grow sales through local marketing, catering, and community outreach, or an absentee owner with strong management oversight. Buyer is subject to franchisor approval and training. Seller will assist with a smooth transition. https://tworld.com/locations/Texas/southandwesttexas/listings/Specialty-Cookie-Franchise-in-West-Houston
Established Meat Market Chain for Sale – SBA Pre-Approved
$ 2,200,000
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a well-established chain of meat markets serving the Rio Grande Valley. The business has built a strong reputation for offering high-quality fresh meats, marinated specialties, seafood, deli products, produce, grocery items, and traditional Hispanic food products, earning a loyal customer base and consistent sales across its locations. The stores are fully operational and provide a turnkey opportunity for an owner-operator or an existing grocery business looking to expand. There is significant potential for continued growth through enhanced digital marketing, online ordering, delivery services, expanded prepared food offerings, and future expansion into additional locations. The sale includes the business operations, furniture, fixtures, equipment, and established goodwill, making it an excellent opportunity for an entrepreneur or strategic buyer seeking a scalable and profitable business. The business has significant opportunities for continued growth through strategic marketing, expanded digital and social media advertising, and the introduction of online ordering and delivery services. Additional revenue can be generated by increasing prepared food and ready-to-eat meal offerings, expanding catering services for local businesses and events, and strengthening relationships with restaurants and commercial customers through wholesale meat sales. Other growth opportunities include opening additional locations in underserved markets, introducing a customer loyalty program, expanding private-label products, and enhancing the in-store shopping experience to increase customer retention and average ticket size. https://tworld.com/locations//southandwesttexas/listings/Established-Meat-Market-Chain-for-Sale-–-SBA-Pre-Approved
Hawaii
Profitable Hawaii Bakery, Semi-Absentee & SBA-Eligible
$ 450,000
Established and profitable bakery with a loyal, well-reviewed retail storefront in a high-traffic Hawaii tourist corridor, available for the first time in years as the owner transitions toward retirement. The business operates from a leased retail location and generates revenue through two complementary channels: a high-volume retail storefront that produces the large majority of sales, plus a recurring commercial/wholesale channel serving established hospitality and food-service accounts. Revenue exceeded $1 million in multiple recent years, with strong gross margins consistently in the 75–80% range. The opportunity is well suited to an owner-operator or a semi-absentee buyer. The current owner is involved only part-time (roughly 4–5 days per week, a few hours per day), with a capable, long-tenured team running daily operations independently — the business continued to run normally during a recent multi-week owner absence. Turnover is very low, systems and recipes are documented, and the seller will provide 30 days of hands-on training with additional consulting available. Highlights: - Strong, established brand with an excellent online reputation that drives continuous new-customer discovery. - Two revenue channels — a high-volume retail storefront plus a recurring commercial/wholesale account base. - Consistently strong gross margins (75–80% range) supported by a disciplined, software-based pricing methodology. - Long-tenured, self-managing team; low owner dependency; documented systems. - Significant recent capital investment — major refrigeration, freezer, and production equipment replaced or upgraded, all included in the sale. - Clean regulatory history; current on all required licensing and health compliance; no litigation. - SBA 7(a) eligible with a lender pre-qualification already in hand; seller financing available for qualified buyers. - Identified, low-capital growth avenues the current part-time owner has not fully pursued (menu expansion, wholesale account growth, catering/special orders, extended hours, and more). A comprehensive Confidential Information Memorandum is available to qualified, financially capable buyers upon execution of a non-disclosure agreement. All inquiries are handled exclusively through Transworld Business Advisors of Hawaii. Please do not visit or contact the business, its owner, or its staff directly — the sale is confidential. The current owner is semi-absentee and has intentionally prioritized consistency over expansion ahead of a sale, leaving several growth avenues open to a more active operator — most requiring little or no additional capital: - Menu expansion: The landlord has granted written approval to add a made-to-order food component to the storefront menu. The equipment and product base are already in place; implementation requires only recipe development and staff training. - Commercial/wholesale growth: The wholesale channel currently contributes a modest share of revenue and is actively rebuilding, including a recent relationship with a premier hospitality operator. Significant room remains to add hotels, resorts, restaurants, specialty retailers, and food-service accounts using existing production capacity and billing infrastructure. - Catering & special orders: A structured catering or special-events program (corporate, hospitality, weddings/events, institutional) could be layered onto the existing production platform. - Extended hours or days: The business is currently closed one day per week and operates on hours built around the current owner's schedule. Expanding hours or days would capture additional revenue at modest incremental labor cost. - Formalize referral partnerships: An existing informal network of local short-term-rental hosts refers guests daily. This could be developed into a structured, trackable partnership or gifting program. - Online / shipping channel (longer term): Customers already buy product for home freezer storage, and direct-to-consumer shipping of specialty baked goods is an established mainland channel. This is a longer-term opportunity requiring investment in fulfillment and cold-chain logistics. https://tworld.com/locations/Hawaii/honolulu/listings/Profitable-Hawaii-Bakery-Semi-Absentee-SBA-Eligible

$ 125,000
