Edible Arrangements Franchise – Semi-Absentee - Poughkeepsie, NY
Business Description
Own a well-established Edible Arrangements franchise in the growing Poughkeepsie, New York market. This turnkey operation generates approximately $620,000 in annual revenue while producing $100,000 in Seller's Discretionary Earnings and is currently operated on a semi-absentee basis. The owner is primarily involved during major holiday periods, with an experienced staff handling day-to-day operations.
The business operates from a spacious 3,000-square-foot location featuring two walk-in coolers, two restrooms, a large office, and substantial storage space. This larger footprint provides a significant advantage during peak holiday periods when production capacity and inventory storage are critical to maximizing sales.
The location benefits from approximately seven years remaining on a favorable lease, providing long-term stability for a new owner. The surrounding area continues to experience residential and commercial development, creating additional opportunities for future growth.
The current owner is selling solely because the business is located too far from his residence. A local owner-operator could further expand sales through increased community involvement, local marketing, and corporate account development.
Businesses with established staff, strong brand recognition, long-term lease security, and semi-absentee operations are increasingly difficult to find. This opportunity offers immediate cash flow, proven systems, and substantial upside for a buyer looking to acquire a recognized franchise with growth potential.
