Liquor Store – Kendall County
Excellent opportunity to acquire a well-established liquor store that has been serving its community for nearly 20 years in Kendall County, Illinois. Located in a busy strip mall, this approximately 1,800-square-foot store has developed a loyal customer base and offers a broad selection of beer, wine, bourbon, spirits, hard seltzers, ready-to-drink beverages, and other popular products.

The store is particularly known for its large bourbon selection and also generates strong wine sales. The facility is well equipped with a large beer cooler that was newly built in 2020, along with four additional coolers, providing ample refrigerated merchandising space.

The business offers meaningful upside for a new owner. Current operating hours are limited, creating an immediate opportunity to increase sales simply by expanding store hours. Tobacco sales are currently minimal, leaving room to expand this category, while additional opportunities may exist through a broader selection of cigars and other high-demand beverage products where permitted. Lottery sales also provide additional customer traffic and currently average approximately $4,000–$5,000 per month.

The current lease runs through December 2028 and includes an additional five-year option. After nearly two decades of operation, the store benefits from an established presence, repeat customers, and a proven location.
The owner is selling because he plans to relocate out of state with his family to be closer to relatives. This is an excellent opportunity for an owner-operator or experienced retailer looking to acquire an established neighborhood business with a long operating history and multiple avenues for future growth.
