Boston full off premise Store, PLUS 2nd full license for 2nd store
Business Description
Im looking for a motivated owner operator who wants to build a name for themselves and fill the vacuums in the high end, independent wine and spirits market that has been left in Boston since last year. Someone who is Sales orientated first and has an eye for indy producers and the ability to get the word out to a wide audience across the city using the store as a base for building their own brand and making a name for themselves. That is the ideal person for this store.
If you are more interested in a convenience store with a full liquor license and lots of foot traffic, thats fine as long as you pay the very fare asking price, but you wont have as much success as being a fine wine store that stands out. Customers are tired of the same old boring selection as the next 10 places. This store will work best as a destination for interesting different things, then it will really stand out in Boston.
Plus, with the Second Full License you have so much more room to grow and build upon your success and generate more sales. Or move the license to an existing store (pending City Approval) and have a seconds existing location generating more sales with a full selection beyond just beer and wine.

- Market Outlook / Competition
- This store is ideal for someone focused on specialty items with high margin, less known more interesting. Think specialty wine shop for high end customers. If you want to build yourself into a brand with social media and video channels this is a great base for you and you are the kind of buyer I want.
If you are looking for a high volume top 20 items boring store there is already one in the neighborhood. If you want to turn it into a convenience store with a full license that would also work in this area. It's a prime location with lots of foot traffic at a busy intersection near public transportation. A loyal customer base. - Opportunities for Growth
- You need to be a Sales Focused Owner to really maximize this store. We do weekly Friday wine tastings and people love it but there needs to be more. Weekly News letters with a wine of the week sales. The tastings need greater presence on social media with a face of the business selling themself and the store. Have a neighborhood physical mailings. More name brand items. Add delivery service, lottery and tobacco and ATM to offer customers more in store options.
With the 2nd City of Boston Full Liquor License that is currently parked, you can open a second location and take greater advantage of bulk item drops split with the new location of your choosing (pending approval from the city.) Expand the brand with a greater geographic footprint.
