Liquor store with $2000 rent for sale
Business Description
Established liquor store with visibility from Hwy 94, located at 1047 Hudson rd, St Paul, MN, 55106 presents an exceptional opportunity with low overhead and significant growth potential. Currently generating $180,000 annually ($15,000 monthly) with inventory valued at $30,000, this 1,600 square foot retail operation benefits from exceptionally affordable rent at only $2,000 per month with modest 4% annual increases.
The business recently reopened in 2025 following temporary closure due to road construction for Metro Transit expansion. Historical performance demonstrates strong potential, with the location previously achieving $428,751 in annual sales in 2016 when current owner sold it.
Current limited operating hours (Monday-Saturday 12pm-8pm, closed Sundays) present immediate expansion opportunities, as the off-sale liquor license permits operations from 10am daily including Sundays.
Key Investment Highlights:
- Exceptionally low rent ($2,000/month) compared to typical liquor store overhead
- Significant hour expansion potential to drive revenue growth
- Established location with proven historical sales performance
- Absentee owner operation demonstrates hands-off potential
- Long-term lease security through September 2030
- Owner financing available at 12% APR for 3 years
The current owner, focused on other business ventures, operates with limited involvement, suggesting strong potential for dedicated ownership to increase sales through extended hours and active management. Based on historical performance metrics, reaching previous sales levels could generate substantial monthly gross profit.
This turnkey operation offers an ideal entry point into liquor retail with low overhead structure and clear growth pathways through operational improvements. Perfect for an owner-operator seeking to build a profitable retail business with established licensing and favorable lease terms.
Seller provides one month post-sale support. Inventory requires separate cash purchase. Additional website asset available separately.
