Two Established Dessert Franchise Locations – $1.48M Revenue
Description
An excellent opportunity to acquire two established locations of a nationally recognized dessert franchise in the greater Birmingham metropolitan area.
The locations generated approximately $1.48 million in combined 2025 revenue and are being offered together for $850,000, including approximately $289,000 in furniture, fixtures, and equipment and an estimated $34,560 in inventory.
Both stores are positioned in attractive, family-oriented suburban markets with strong household incomes, growing populations, highly regarded schools, and substantial retail and community activity. The locations benefit from the franchise’s national brand recognition, centralized marketing, proven operating systems, online ordering, delivery, catering, and strong social-media presence.
The business is supported by approximately 22 employees, including experienced production and shift-level personnel. The owners currently spend approximately 20 combined hours per week overseeing the two locations. One owner primarily manages scheduling, ordering, and operations, while the other handles financial and administrative oversight. These responsibilities are transferable to a new owner or could be delegated further as the management structure is strengthened.
The owners opened their first location in 2021 and successfully expanded to three stores. They are now beginning a planned transition toward retirement and have elected to retain one location while selling these two. The sale is not the result of financial distress or dissatisfaction with the franchise.
This opportunity should appeal to an owner-operator, or a buyer seeking an established platform with significant equipment already in place and multiple avenues for future growth.
Additional information, including the franchise identity, store locations, financial statements, and operating details, will be provided to qualified buyers following execution of a confidentiality agreement and completion of a buyer profile.
***Please note: Franchise approval requires the buyer to demonstrate liquid assets equal to at least 20% of the purchase price.
