Asset Sale Description
Turnkey Franchise Buildout • Excellent Rent • Below-Market Entry
Step into ownership of a fully built, operating Cinnaholic dessert franchise located in one of Mesa’s fastest-growing trade areas—just off the US-60 freeway in a bustling new retail corridor. This store is being offered as an asset sale, giving a new owner the benefit of a proven franchise model, an existing customer base, and a fully equipped bakery at a fraction of the cost to build new.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
Cinnaholic is a nationally recognized dessert franchise known for customizable gourmet cinnamon rolls, cookies, brownies, and specialty desserts. The Mesa store includes all furniture, fixtures, equipment (FF&E), signage, kitchen equipment, POS systems, and franchise-compliant buildout, ready for a new operator to take over immediately and begin generating revenue.
This location is ideal for an owner-operator who wants a profitable, turnkey dessert business without the high cost and long ramp-up time of new construction.
Below-Market Asking Price vs. New Build Cost
The typical Cinnaholic franchise requires:
• $250,000+ to build a new store, including franchise fees, architect plans, equipment, hood systems, plumbing, electrical, and full interior construction.
(Industry norm and published franchise ranges.)
Buying this location means you acquire:
? Complete $250K+ Buildout
? Full commercial bakery equipment
? Refrigeration, freezers, prep tables, mixers
? POS + software + security
? Full Cinnaholic décor + signage
? Turnkey operational setup
? Existing customer traffic
? No construction delays
? No permitting delays
? No equipment shipping delays
All for far below the cost of a new startup.

• Strong family demographics
• Traffic from shopping, dining & entertainment
• Major commuter flow via US-60
The area continues to grow in population and retail density, making this a strong long-term location.
Great Rent Structure
The Mesa store benefits from reasonable rent, currently shown as:
