Two locations are offered together but are available separately selling Haagan Dazs, premium ice cream products with national brand recognition. The franchise brand name is a strong draw to customers. The seller is offering all franchise and lease rights for these already established locations including the almost new equipment and major leasehold improvements at a small percentage of their cost when new. Unlike a startup franchise costing new from $144,000 to $430,000, this established business offers financial history, an established customer base, and other advantages of an established business at a far lower cost due to other seller commitments. Any reasonable offer could be accepted. Better than a non-franchise business, this business includes brand recognition as well as long term training and support as well as cooperative shared advertising cost and guidance for local promotions to draw customers. Like any good established independently operating business, the buyer walks into a fully operating business with cash flow on day one.

Facilities: Offered are leases in two large indoor mall complexes in different towns, two retail locations both with high visibility, each has adjacent parking. Both at Food Court locations. Shoppers can get an ice cream treat to eat there or take back in their car or home. One location is one year new. It does not yet have a history of high income and may be excluded from purchase for the buyer only wanting the proven successful location.

Competition: Many competitors offer the "same old" product. This business offers a unique high quality product with major national brand recognition, separating it from the many competitors. Unfortunately all retail sales are down in the current economy. Sales shown include that the primary location is down 28% from the previous year due to the depressed national economy. Also the new start up location has not been well developed in this economy. This business only needs a new owner ready to ride back with the returning economy.

Growth/Expansion: Due to out-of-state absentee ownership (often out-of-country), management has been by young people who seldom see the owner and who have no buy-in to maintain or grow sales. An on site or frequently visiting owner would easily increase sales which would be normal with an on site owner/operator who will pay attention to sales. Also, after these locations are mastered, other franchises could be available from this franchisee.

Seller Financing Available: Yes

Financing: $355k w/ 50% Seller financing. $250K price is if Cash Buyer.

Support/Training: The seller will bring buyer in as manager to train while assisting buyer to purchase the franchise at each or both locations. In addition to Seller training the franchisor requires the buyer attend a two week training program at their facility.

Reason Selling: Divesting multiple locations to free time for a new international business.
