About the Business
Rare opportunity to acquire one of Fremantle’s best regarded speciality coffee bars. This compact, high margin hole in the wall trades Monday to Friday, 7.30am to 1.30pm, and is closed on weekends and public holidays.
Easy to run with significant potential to increase trading hours, this opportunity is ideal for someone looking for a low risk, low investment business of their own.
With the current sellers now having finished their degrees, their beloved coffee bar is up for grabs and ready for new owners to take over the successful business they have built.
Business Snapshot:
• Strong profitability on modest turnover: FY2026 net sales of $208,957 at a 71.8% gross margin, returning an adjusted net profit of $93,636 to the working owners.
• Exceptional return on investment: Approximately 72% at the asking price, or 1.39 times adjusted net profit, with an indicative payback period of under eighteen months.
• Lifestyle trading hours that are genuinely rare: Monday to Friday, 7.30am to 1.30pm. No nights, no weekends and no public holidays. Just thirty hours per week, door open to door shut.
• Strong daily sales: Current trading is around 8% ahead of the FY2026 daily average on a like for like basis.
Key Feature:
• No staff to manage: Currently run entirely by one full-time owner and one part-time owner, with no employees. The site has historically operated with one casual and can be run by a single owner operator with limited support.
• Secure tenure: Lease runs to March 2028 with a further two-year option to March 2030, assignable to an approved purchaser with landlord consent.
• All plant and equipment included: Approximately $30,100 of plant and equipment is included unencumbered, headed by a La Marzocco Linea PB two group serviced in July 2026, with the primary grinder serviced and reverse osmosis filters replaced at the same time.
• Established reputation and barriers to entry: The owners report the business ranks first on Google for “best coffee in Fremantle” and “best hot chocolate in Fremantle”. Small format tenancies in the Fremantle CBD are limited, and a new entrant faces significant fit out costs, as well as the years required to build a loyal weekday following.
