Business Description
A rare chance to take over a modern Beard Papa’s in one of Denver’s most visible retail corridors. Built out in 2021, this 1,474 SF dessert shop features a crisp, contemporary design —ideal for an owner-operator or multi-unit group seeking a low-cost, move-in-ready location with brand recognition and strong neighborhood fundamentals. All FF&E conveys at closing.

Location & Trade Area
Positioned directly along Colorado Boulevard, the site benefits from constant daily traffic, easy access to I-25 and Evans, and proximity to dense residential pockets, employment centers, and destination retail. Everyday convenience and regional draw combine here: shoppers, families, students, and professionals frequent the corridor throughout the week and into evenings. Co-tenancy and nearby brands include J. Crew Factory, Nothing Bundt Cakes, See’s Candies, Jamba, Nordstrom Rack, fitness studios, and popular eateries—creating steady footfall and cross-shopping. A former Safeway in the center recently closed, presenting a potential re-anchor opportunity that could further elevate traffic as ownership re-merchants the space.

Facilities & Assets
Modern front-of-house with seating plus an outdoor patio set; efficient back-of-house line designed for speed and quality control. Major equipment includes:
• (2) Combi Electric Smart Ovens
• Carpigiani custard machine
• Planetary mixer + KitchenAid mixer
• Under-counter refrigerators (x2) and under-counter freezer
• Reach-in refrigerator and reach-in freezer
• 26 cu ft ice maker and refrigerated display case
• (4) custom Italian custard pumps
• Vitamix blender; Bunn coffee/tea brewer
• (3) 40" digital menu TVs
• Security DVR with 8 cameras
• Microwave, wire racks, 30 baking trays, and complete smallwares package
Furniture/Seating: five 3’x3’ tables; two 3’x8’ tables; one 2’x6’ bar table; four barstools; fourteen chairs; one 8’ bench; patio set (3 tables, 6 chairs).

Operations
Currently owner-operated with established recipes, prep standards, and franchise-consistent service flow. The footprint, equipment package, and layout support efficient ticket times and high product consistency. Transition is straightforward for a new operator; the store’s systems and line design facilitate quick onboarding and training. (Any conversion to another dessert/beverage concept would require appropriate approvals.)

Growth & Expansion

• Delivery & Digital: Expand with Uber Eats, DoorDash, and Grubhub; promote loyalty and app-based offers for renters and students.
• Catering & Events: Build corporate, school, and apartment catering; introduce party packs and seasonal bundles.
• Marketing Flywheel: Increase social content, local influencer features, Google profile optimization, and review velocity to boost discovery and repeat traffic.
• Cross-Promotions: Partner with neighboring fitness, café, and retail tenants for co-marketing, sample days, and bounce-backs.
• Re-Anchor Upside: Position to capture traffic lift if/when the former Safeway box is re-tenanted.

Competition & Positioning

The Colorado Blvd corridor includes dessert and boba concepts. Beard Papa’s can differentiate through product quality, freshness, fast ticket times, family bundles, seasonal limited-time offers, and reliable delivery/catering. Evening and weekend occasions, plus after-work traffic, are natural demand pockets to target.

Why This Deal
• Turnkey, recent buildout—minimal capex to launch.
• Prime corridor visibility with strong retail synergy and daily traffic.
• Low acquisition price versus replacement cost of improvements and equipment.
• Multiple operational levers to grow sales in a dense, convenience-driven trade area.

Showing & Confidentiality
Please do not disturb employees or customers. All inquiries and showings will be coordinated discreetly through the listing broker.
