Approximately $200,000 in FF&E is included in the sale.

Competition:

Located in one of South Carolina’s strongest tourism and residential markets, the business benefits from Hilton Head Island’s combination of visitors, year-round residents, families, events, and hospitality activity. The national franchise brand provides significant name recognition, social media exposure, proven products, and established operating systems. Competition includes local bakeries, ice cream shops, dessert concepts, and other specialty food retailers, but the business benefits from a nationally recognized concept and an established local customer base.

Growth & Expansion:

There are several practical opportunities for a new owner to improve performance. A locally engaged operator could expand relationships with hotels, schools, community organizations, recreation programs, and local events. The store already has a relationship with the local recreation center that could be developed further.

Management has also identified opportunities to optimize operating hours and reduce unnecessary labor expense during slower morning periods.

Additional focus on local marketing, catering, community partnerships, hotel relationships, corporate orders, school events, and tourism-driven promotions could provide additional revenue opportunities.

A more hands-on local owner has an opportunity to manage purchasing, labor, marketing, and community outreach more aggressively.

Support & Training:

The business has an experienced store manager with approximately four years of franchise experience, an assistant manager, and trained employees already in place. The current ownership will provide reasonable transition assistance, and the buyer will complete the franchisor’s required approval and training process.

Reason for Selling:

The primary owner lives out of state and is selling due to personal health.
