High-performing independent café under full management, secure lease to 2031, strong weekly sales and $200k+ annual net returns.
$200,000 pa
Since opening in 2022, it has established itself as a “must-visit” venue, drawing loyal locals and repeat customers from surrounding areas who actively seek it out for its atmosphere, consistency, and quality. The café enjoys a naturally beautiful setting with strong lifestyle appeal, creating an experience that keeps patrons returning week after week.
The current owner acquired the business in September 2022 and has since refined operations, strengthened systems, and positioned the café for long-term stability and profitability. Today, the business operates fully under management, led by a capable and reliable full-time manager who oversees day-to-day operations. The manager is employed under a formal contract, earning $70,000 p.a. plus superannuation, providing continuity and operational security for the next owner.
Trading performance is strong and consistent. Based on recent three-month figures (March, April and May 2025), total sales reached $288,000, equating to average weekly sales exceeding $22,000. According to the seller, weekly turnover is often closer to $24,000, supported by a diversified sales mix. Approximately 10% of revenue is generated via delivery platforms, while cash sales contribute a further ~5%, demonstrating healthy demand across multiple channels.
The staffing structure is well balanced, with three casual kitchen staff and five to six front-of-house team members, ensuring smooth service during peak periods while maintaining cost control. Cost of goods averages around 30%, in line with a well-run café operation.
On a conservative pro-forma basis, after accounting for rent, wages, cost of goods, and miscellaneous operating expenses, the business produces a passive income of close to $4,000 per week for the owners. This translates to annual net earnings in excess of $200,000, achieved without the owner’s daily involvement.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a profitable, systemised café with a strong brand presence, secure long-term lease, and genuine under-management structure. The seller is prepared to provide a structured handover to ensure a smooth transition and continued success.
Ideal for investors, lifestyle buyers seeking minimal hands-on involvement, or operators wanting a proven platform with further growth potential.
