Located in Singleton’s main stop alongside McDonald’s, Subway, and Hungry Jack’s, Zambrero enjoys high visibility and strong sales from local customers, sales reps, and mining workers.
About the Opportunity
Zambrero is Australia’s largest Mexican food franchise, known for its fresh, modern approach to Mexican cuisine and its global Plate 4 Plate initiative, which has donated over 70 million meals to those in need. With more than 270 restaurants worldwide and a strong national marketing presence, Zambrero is a trusted, proven brand with a loyal and growing customer base.
This is your opportunity to acquire Zambrero Singleton — one of only three Zambrero stores in the Hunter region and currently achieving the highest sales and profit of the three. Strategically located on a busy highway, the store benefits from strong exposure to mining industry workers, travelling sales reps, families, and local customers, making it a highly visible and profitable location.
Opened in May 2021, the restaurant features a modern 100m² dine-in and takeaway premises, designed for efficient operations and delivery demand. The business generates strong annual sales of approximately $1,060,000 (inc. GST) and is supported by a dedicated team of 12–15 trained casual staff. Singleton is currently run under management, allowing a seamless transition for an investor or the option for an owner-operator to step in.
The Zambrero system is simple to learn, requiring no prior hospitality experience, with comprehensive training and ongoing support covering operations, marketing, HR, and business systems. This makes Singleton ideal for both investors seeking a managed business and hands-on operators looking to actively grow the business.
