Take over 3 built-out Barry Bagels stores already open and running, without spending the year and roughly $1M it took to build them from scratch.

This is a hub-and-spoke Barry Bagels operation in Kentucky under a 55-year-old family brand, all 3 locations opened within a single 12-month stretch. The baking hub is a 1,750 sq ft corner unit built fully to spec, where the bulk of the baking equipment lives and where product is produced for the group. From there, a company delivery van and an in-house logistics setup supply 2 retail spokes: a Prospect location in a longtime bakery-and-coffee space at 1,100 sq ft, and a compact 500 sq ft spoke on one of downtown Louisville's busiest corners, surrounded by luxury lofts, 2 hotels under construction, and major employers relocating onto the block. Running spokes costs a fraction of running the hub, and a small footprint can operate as a Barry Bagels Express. The current owner works under 5 hours a week, with a general manager and strong systems handling daily operations. The included territory covers all of greater Louisville and southern Indiana on an exclusive basis, with first right of refusal for the rest of the state.

Highlights include:
- Hub-and-spoke model keeps spoke operating costs low
- Company-owned delivery van and in-house logistics
- GM and systems run daily operations; owner works under 5 hrs/wk
- Exclusive Louisville and southern Indiana territory
- First right of refusal on new Kentucky locations
- Wholesale and coffee-shop partnerships in the works

This may suit a hands-on owner-operator ready to chase wholesale and cafeteria accounts, a multi-unit food operator, or an existing franchisee expanding within a proven brand.
