Average SDE (Seller Discretionary Earnings)

The business offers a variety of bakery products, cakes, pastries, coffee and beverages, sandwiches, catering, online ordering, takeout, and third-party delivery.
As part of a recognized national franchise system, the business benefits from brand awareness, approved supplier channels, operating systems, product standards, training resources, franchise marketing, and ongoing franchisor support.
This is not a start-up. A buyer is stepping into an established franchise location with historical sales, trained staff, operating systems, and an existing customer base.
The location is fully built out and includes the furniture, fixtures, equipment, leasehold improvements, production equipment, display cases, refrigeration, POS systems, customer seating, and operating assets used in the bakery cafe.
Operations:
The business is manager-supported and structured for limited owner involvement. Day-to-day operations are supported by a primary manager and approximately 27–30 employees across baking, cake decorating, front-of-house sales, customer service, administrative support, and management.
The current owner provides oversight, financial review, and strategic decision-making, while the management team handles routine store-level operations, staffing, ordering, employee communication, customer service, and coordination with franchise support.
Growth Opportunities:
A new owner may have the opportunity to grow the business through expanded catering and corporate orders, outreach to nearby offices and schools, stronger local marketing, improved social media presence, increased beverage attachment rates, promotion of cakes and holiday offerings, better online ordering visibility, and more active owner-operator involvement.
