Description
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.
