Mercer County - Turnkey Specialty Tea Franchise
Business Description
Gong Cha Hamilton is a well‑established bubble tea franchise located in a high‑traffic retail corridor in Hamilton in a shopping center anchored by Wal-Mart. Opened three years ago, the store has built a loyal customer base and consistent traffic driven by strong brand recognition and the growing demand for premium bubble tea. The business generates approximately $231,000 in annual revenue, supported by steady repeat customers, third‑party delivery platforms, and the operational efficiencies of a proven franchise system.
The store is fully equipped, modern, and turnkey, with all franchise‑required equipment, recipes, and operating procedures in place. Staffing is stable, training is standardized, and the operation runs with minimal ownership involvement - about 10 hours per week. As part of the Gong Cha global network—one of the most recognized bubble tea brands worldwide—the Hamilton location benefits from national marketing, established supply chains, and ongoing franchise support.
This is an attractive opportunity for a buyer seeking a streamlined, easy‑to‑operate food and beverage business with strong brand equity and room for growth through local marketing, catering, and expanded delivery channels.

- Franchise
- This business is an established franchise
- Market Outlook / Competition
- A hands‑on operator can step into a business with strong brand recognition, consistent foot traffic, and a trained staff already in place. This buyer would oversee all operations on a full time basis. Prior experience in food service, retail, or hospitality is helpful but not required due to Gong Cha’s structured training and support. An engaged operator can capture additional upside by improving labor efficiency with their hours spent in the store.
- Opportunities for Growth
- The Hamilton Gong Cha is currentlhy operating at a loss under largely absentee ownership, with the current owners dedicating approximately 10 hours per week to oversight while focusing on other business interests. As a result, this limited involvement has contributed to higher labor costs, minimal local marketing, and missed opportunities to optimize daily operations. The store’s current financial losses are primarily a reflection of its structure, not its market potential.
A buyer who intends to operate the store directly is positioned to materially improve performance.
Gong Cha’s standardized systems, strong brand recognition, and established customer base provide a solid foundation for profitability once active management is in place. Opportunities include:
*Reducing labor costs through tighter scheduling and direct oversight
*Increasing sales via community engagement, local marketing, and consistent store presence
*Driving repeat business through loyalty programs and upselling
