Business Description
Turnkey, well-established specialty coffee shop operating since 2013 (brick and mortar location since 2018) in one of Louisville's most dynamic and fast-growing downtown corridors — steps from the city's celebrated bourbon-tourism district and its steady stream of visitors, events, and new development. This is a great opportunity to acquire a proven, cash-flowing business with a loyal local following and built-in tourist foot traffic.

The business runs on a semi-absentee basis, with a trained, capable team handling daily operations. The current owner is only lightly involved day-to-day, making this an ideal fit for either a hands-on operator looking to step in or an investor seeking dependable cash flow without full-time commitment.

Financially, the business has a track record of steady, dependable sales and consistent cash flow — not a turnaround or a fixer, but a stable, running operation with clean, verifiable financials available to qualified buyers. Seven years of operating history, including proven resilience through changing conditions, de-risks the purchase versus a newer concept.

The surrounding downtown district continues to grow, with ongoing development, rising foot traffic, and the enduring draw of the bourbon-trail attractions that bring visitors to the area year-round. There is meaningful upside for a motivated owner to extend hours, expand marketing, grow catering or wholesale, and capture more of the incoming tourism traffic.

Included in the sale: established brand, trained staff, equipment and buildout, and most importantly, a proven location. A separate roasting operation and additional growth assets may be available — flexible to the buyer's goals. The seller is committed to a smooth transition and is open to discussing terms with the right buyer.

Confidential listing. Full details, financials, and location available to qualified buyers upon signed NDA.

Market Outlook / Competition
Closest coffee shops are a few blocks away, this is in a downtown location with mainly foot traffic, haven't had any major issues with competition. Perfect location based on where this spot is in the city, great during Derby season, Slugger Museum brings constant tourist along with bourbon attractions. More hotels being built downtown, this spot should be great for years to come
Opportunities for Growth
Have only been running until 2pm on weekday and 3pm on weekends. Easily could expand to longer hours into the evening, could be fruitful as there are bourbon attractions staying open until 8pm, 9pm.
