Calgary Alberta Subway Franchise Conditionally Sold
Investment level: 199,000 ( Plus inventory $6,000-7,000)
If you are selling your Fast Food Franchise in Alberta, I have several qualified buyers searching for these types of opportunities.
Excellent opportunity for a hard-working couple to purchase a Food Franchise everyone knows. Our client has decided it is time for him to retire and turn the business over to someone who has the energy and ambition to grow this business.
The mall over the last 2 years that the store is in has gone through extensive renovations and construction plus the adding of an LTR line. This has resulted in a bit of a slowdown in sales. Construction of the mall has almost been completed and there is now discussion that a 3,000-apartment complex will be built adjacent to the mall, over the next 2-3 years.
There are many factors behind why this business’s sales and profitability are well below store averages and why the selling price is well below what a new franchise would cost to purchase and build from scratch. But for a smart buyer who is willing to invest time and energy, there are solutions.
If you are searching to purchase an icon brand and create additional equity in the business itself, then this well-priced QSR opportunity should be on your must learn list.
