About the Business

Highly Profitable Licensed Supermarket & Liquor Store - Inner Melbourne

Business Overview
Sanjeev Sharma from Sharma Brokers is proud to present a rare opportunity to acquire a long-standing, highly lucrative licensed supermarket and liquor store. Positioned in a bustling commercial strip just minutes from the Melbourne CBD, this business has served as a trusted cornerstone of the local community for over four decades.
Operating with virtually no immediate competition, the property features a spacious retail footprint of approximately 300 sqm. It comes fully equipped to stock fresh produce, meats, groceries, hot snacks, and features a dedicated, licensed liquor department.
Adding massive value to the business is a large, versatile upper level measuring approximately 180 sqm. This secondary space features a functional working kitchen, two toilets, and office/storage configurations that can easily double as living quarters-offering incredible passive income flexibility.
Key Business Highlights
Unbeatable Lease Agreement: Exceptional security with a long-term lease secured until 2047 coupled with highly competitive, reasonable rent.
Premium Inner-City Location: Situated in a high-foot-traffic commercial zone surrounded by a densely populated residential catchment area near the CBD.
Turnkey Assets Included: The sale price includes $350,000 worth of well-maintained, commercial-grade equipment, featuring two walk-in cool rooms, display fridges, extensive retail shelving, checkout counters, multiple POS systems, a coffee machine, and more.
Low Operational Overhead & Visa Seeker Friendly: Strong profit margins and a robust, compliant operating history make this an excellent and viable option for business migration visa purposes.
Secondary Passive Income Streams
In addition to standard retail store sales, the premises generate reliable, automated passive revenue from multiple established services:
Bitcoin ATM: Generates $400 per month.
Sidewall Advertising Rent: Generates $400 per month.
Luggage Storage Partnerships (Bounce & Radical): Generates $200 per month.
KeyNest Services: Generates $150 per month.
Sub-Lease Property Potential: The spacious two-bedroom-sized upstairs commercial hall can be rented out for an estimated $1,500 to $2,000 per week. Alternatively, the entire building configuration holds an estimated total rental value of $4,500 per month.
Growth & Expansion Potential
While already highly profitable, an energetic buyer can instantly scale revenue by capitalising on immediate growth channels:
1. Introduce Tobacco Sales: Tap into strong local demand by adding cigarettes to the counter offerings for immediate revenue generation.
2. Expand the Food & Beverage Mix: Broaden the current hot food selection and introduce a wider range of premium boutique liquor products.
3. Monetize the Upper Level: Aggressively market and sub-lease the massive upper level for commercial or residential use to immediately maximise rental yields.
