Established Long Island Deli with Strong Base Revenue & Clear Growth Path

Asking Price: $229,000
Seller Motivated – Entertaining All Reasonable Offers

This is an opportunity to acquire a well-established Long Island deli generating approximately $15,000 per week in sales, located in a high-traffic Suffolk County shopping center.

Owned and operated for over 12 years, this business has built a loyal customer base and strong community presence, while leaving significant upside untapped due to minimal operational focus on growth.

A new operator can step in and immediately increase revenue through basic modernization and expanded operations.

Business Highlights

• ~$15,000/week in sales with strong baseline volume
• Seller motivated – all reasonable offers considered
• Prime location in a busy, dense residential strip center
• 12+ years of consistent owner operation
• Loyal, repeat customer base with long-standing community presence
• Existing equipment in place – deli cases, compressors, and infrastructure
• All homemade recipes included in sale

Operational Upside (Key Opportunity)

This business is currently underutilized, creating a clear value-add opportunity:

• No online presence – no website or digital ordering
• No third-party delivery (Uber Eats, DoorDash, etc.)
• No marketing or advertising in place
• Limited operating hours

A qualified operator can unlock immediate growth by implementing standard industry practices.

Lease & Landlord Position

• Approximately 3 years remaining on current lease
• Landlord is open to working with a qualified buyer and is focused on elevating the overall shopping center
• Experienced, proven operators preferred for lease approval

This creates a strong fit for an established operator looking to expand into a proven location.

Growth Opportunities

With proper execution, there is a realistic path to $25K–$30K+ weekly sales through:

• Extended hours
• Third-party delivery and online ordering
• Catering to local businesses and events
• Branding, signage, and interior refresh

Why This Deal Works

• Immediate cash flow with clear upside levers
• Proven location with long-standing customer base
• Below-market entry point for the volume
• Ideal “add-on” location for an experienced operator
• Opportunity to align with a landlord actively improving the center

Ideal Buyer

• Experienced deli, bagel, or QSR operator
• Hands-on buyer ready to implement growth systems
• Operator looking to scale an existing concept into a proven location
