Financial Highlights
Annual Gross Sales: $300,000 – $350,000
Additional Passive Income: $8,000/year (Combined Lottery & ATM commissions)
Asking Price: $139,000 (+ Inventory at cost) - Market Outlook / Competition
- Strategic Location with a Protected Market Real Estate
~ This Liquor store is ideally situated in a high-density, heavily populated residential pocket of New Haven. The store benefits from a deeply loyal, built-in neighborhood customer base, generating consistent year-round foot traffic and stable, recurring revenue.
Exceptional Barriers to Entry
~ The biggest asset of this opportunity is the highly regulated Connecticut market. Due to strict state population quotas and zoning caps on package store licenses, the local market is effectively insulated against new immediate competition. This creates a highly secure, protected trade area and an automatic competitive moat that corporate big-box stores cannot disrupt. - Opportunities for Growth
- While the store already generates reliable numbers, a new owner could easily boost revenue:
~ Introducing a robust delivery service (Drizly, UberEats, DoorDash).
~ Expanding the craft beer or premium wine selection to cater to changing neighborhood demographics.
~ Implementing local social media marketing and promotions.
