Location Details
Shop 43 Rose City ShoppingWorld, Palmerin St WARWICK
Exceptional shopping centre location directly opposite Coles. Warwick is the administrative centre of the Southern Downs Region with a population of 38,000. It is the service hub for the surrounding agricultural communities of the Darling Downs.
Potential
This is an opportunity for an owner-operator, not a passive investment. There is immediate upside in replacing casual hours with owner hours. Our experience is that owners build customer relationship, expand the customer value proposition, optimise ranging and margin potential and achieve significantly higher profitability.
Skills
Ideally the owner will have retail experience and a personal belief in natural health and wellness.
Professional qualifications such as Naturopathy, Nutrition, Complimentary Therapies and pharmacy-adjacent would be a compelling fit for this opportunity.
Hours
Standard hours are 9am to 5.30pm weekdays, 9am to 3pm Saturdays. Sundays are optional.
Lease
There is 3 years remaing on the current lease plus a 5 year option.
Employees
The business currently employs six casual staff, including two juniors. We also provide a consultation room to an independent naturopath at no charge. This informal arrangement began a few years ago to benefit our customers.
Reason for Sale
After many years building two successful Go Vita stores across the Southern Downs, we are ready to transition. Both at retirement age and based in Stanthorpe, the logical next step is to sell Warwick. This is a genuine, motivated sale from experienced operators who know exactly what they have built.
About the Business
Go Vita Warwick sits within one of Australia's most respected retail networks — the Go Vita Co-operative, established in 1987 and built on a straightforward premise: the strength of the group serves the success of each member.
Unlike a franchise, Go Vita returns its advantages to members — not upward to a corporate entity. Every store owner joins a network designed to work for them.
As a Go Vita member, the incoming owner will have access to:
• Collective Buying Power — access to premium vitamins, supplements, organic foods, and natural health products at competitive wholesale prices that independent operators simply cannot match.
• National Brand Recognition — decades of consumer trust built through consistent quality and service, giving every store owner a head start no start-up can replicate.
• Marketing and Promotional Support — professionally developed campaigns, seasonal promotions, social media resources, point-of-sale materials, and local area marketing support.
• Supplier Access and Private Label Range — centralised relationships with Australia's leading natural health suppliers, plus exclusive access to Go Vita's own private label range, providing strong margin opportunities unavailable elsewhere.
• Peer Community and Knowledge Sharing — a network of like-minded health retail professionals where experience and expertise are freely shared. Whether you are a seasoned operator or new to the industry, you are never in business alone.
• Operational Flexibility — unlike rigid franchise models, Go Vita's co-operative structure respects the independence of each store owner. Members retain the freedom to run their business their way, supported rather than constrained by the group.
The Warwick store is not a start-from-scratch proposition. The brand is established, the network is proven, and the support is in place from day one.
A motivated owner-operator steps in ready to grow — not ready to build.
History
Rose City Shopping World approached the owners directly during the centre's expansion and renovation, offering a prime position in the new wing, directly opposite their anchor tenant, Coles. An exciting offer that we accepted.
Go Vita Warwick opened in 2018.
What followed was an extraordinary test of resilience. In the years since opening, the business has navigated Severe drought, Catastrophic bushfires, COVID, and the economic disruption that followed.
Go Vita Warwick did not just survive these challenges — it continued to grow.
