The business sells unique specialty coffees in their own retail store and over the Internet. Store customers come mainly from town and the immediately surrounding towns, but Internet based sales are nationwide. The business buys the finest, highest grade coffee beans available. The store is prominently located in an upscale town and sells a variety of freshly brewed coffees, baked snacks, coffee beans, specialty foods, teas, accessories, and gift baskets.

Facilities: The retail location is in a very well located and well maintained free standing building. There is 2,200 sq ft retail and work space plus over 1000 sq ft of storage space. There are designated parking spaces adjacent to the building. The lease has about 14 years to go and is well below the area market rates.

Competition: There is local competition, mainly national chains and franchises, all but one of which has been established for at least 4 years. They are. Competitive advantages have been quality, freshness and uniqueness of its coffee.

Reason Selling: Wants a change after over a decade in the retail coffee business
