Description
This shop has operated in the same location for over 20 years, originally opening in 2003 as the first Powell’s Sweet Shoppe location. The current owner purchased the business in 2008 and has operated it profitably ever since, rebranding it as Cravins Candy in 2018.
The business enjoys unmatched visibility, consistent all-season foot traffic, event-driven surges, and deep roots in the community.
The operation is simple, stable, and highly profitable with Seller’s Discretionary Earnings of approximately $230,000. The owner works just 10–15 hours per week from home while a full-time manager handles daily operations.
Inventory (~$100,000 value) is included in the purchase price.
Note: The business name “Cravins Candy Windsor” is not included in the sale due to licensing restrictions. A new buyer will rebrand—but the store’s success is driven by its location, product mix, and customer experience, not the name.
This is a packaged opportunity: The business and real estate must be purchased together. They will not be sold separately.
Highlights:
> $230,000 verified SDE (tax returns available)
> Iconic Town Green location with nonstop pedestrian traffic
> Business and real estate sold as a package
> 1,399 sq ft commercial condo included (valued at $750,000)
> Owner works 10–15 hours/week – semi-absentee
> Experienced full-time manager in place
> Clean, transparent financials
> Strong supplier relationships and pricing
> Over two decades of goodwill and operating history
> Approximately $100,000 inventory included in price
SBA Financing
