King's Cakes
About this opportunity
For 55 years, Kings Cakes has been the go-to bakery in Townsville. Maintaining such a stellar reputation over this long period is no small feat. Their sought-after range of freshly baked goods includes delicious pies, and sausage rolls that satisfy even the hungriest customers. Additionally, they create stunning cakes for all occasions, making Kings Cakes a true destination for dessert lovers.
An opportunity like this doesn’t come around often. After many years in the industry, Kings Cakes is now on the market as the owners prepare for retirement. As expected from a business of this size, it is well-established with a dedicated staff. The owner-operators have scaled back their hours, and with the addition of another baker or pastry chef, the business can be effectively managed by others, offering a potential passive income stream.
Business Story
Kings Cakes has built a loyal following over the years by creating affordable, high-quality cakes, pies, sausage rolls, and a diverse range of sweet and savory treats. This well-established bakery caters to locals, workers, and wholesale clients alike. With an impressive 4.6-star rating on Google, it demonstrates a strong commitment to quality. Beyond its solid foundation that keeps customers returning, Kings Cakes holds a significant presence in the community, making this an exciting opportunity for a new owner.
Nestled in the heart of Townsville, Kings Cakes has a prime location at its Mooney St shopfront. This suburban area gives the bakery high visibility for a continual workflow and has easy accessibility for customers seeking freshly baked goods. This location makes this store an easy and convenient option for many customers in the Townsville region.
Kings Cakes has many growth opportunities that can be implemented to further its success. The store is currently fitted with a pie machine with the capacity to produce 2000 pies per hour accompanied with 2 ROTEL ovens to bake the pies in a timely manner, using this to its full potential will create more supply for the demand from local and wholesale customers. There is also potential in additional products and services, such as introducing various bread varieties, implementing a drive-thru window service, offering coffee, pre-made sandwiches, and meeting the growing demand for gluten-free and vegan options in birthday cakes. These strategic initiatives in combination with extended opening hours will position this bakery for growth and success in the bakery industry.
After the business becomes yours, the current owners will gladly give you a generous period of tuition to ensure you are accustomed to running the business when the time comes. The tuition will run you through everything you need to know behind the scenes and allow the business to run optimally for your takeover.
The current owners of the business are retiring and have this business primed and ready for a new owner. If you're interested in owning a thriving business in a sought-after location, this is the opportunity for you. Contact us today to learn more!
