Established Smoke Shop for Sale – Winnetka, CA
Business Description
Fantastic opportunity to own a long-standing smoke shop in the heart of Winnetka! This 1,200 sq. ft. retail space has been operating for nearly 20 years and comes with over $80,000 in inventory included in the sale. The business offers a wide variety of products including cigarettes, cigars, smoking accessories, and additional merchandise ranging from hats to incense.
Located in a busy plaza with strong foot traffic, the rent is approximately $3,500/month including CAM. The current lease has about 2 years remaining, and an extension may be requested at the time of transfer—landlord is likely to approve though not guaranteed.
This is a fully absentee-run operation, making it an ideal opportunity for either a hands-on owner-operator or an investor looking to grow revenue. Plenty of upside potential—adding lottery sales, vending machines, or expanding merchandise lines could significantly increase profits. Broker can provide additional suggestions and insights during your showing.
Please do not go direct. The staff is unaware the business is for sale. All showings by appointment only.

- Opportunities for Growth
- This business has strong roots in the community but is currently under-marketed, presenting a major opportunity for growth. A new owner can increase revenue by applying for California Lottery sales, adding vending machines, and implementing strategic advertising—including online ads, social media marketing, and setting up a website. The shop currently has no online presence, which can easily be developed to capture a wider audience. You can also advertise on platforms like Parma TV or other local channels to attract more foot traffic. With the right mark
