Turnkey Baskin Robbins Ice Cream Franchise – Prime Highway Plaza Location – Seller Highly Motivated - Forced to Retire

Exceptional opportunity to acquire a well-established, owner-operated ice cream business operating under a nationally recognized, highly trusted brand in a prime, high-visibility shopping plaza directly along a heavily traveled highway. This location benefits from nonstop drive-by exposure, strong foot traffic, and consistent year-round customer demand.

The business generated approximately $275,000 in annual gross revenue in 2024, and performance is expected to remain generally consistent in 2025, with updated financials currently being finalized. It should be noted that current sales are below the potential of the location and brand, primarily due to the owner’s health-related limitations, which have prevented active marketing, consistent oversight, and growth initiatives.

After 18 successful years of ownership, the current seller is forced to retire due to health reasons, creating a rare opportunity to acquire a proven operation with significant upside under engaged ownership.

This is a true turnkey business with simple, streamlined systems that make day-to-day operations easy to manage. The concept is well suited for a hands-on owner/operator or a buyer seeking a low-investment entry into a stable, recognizable brand. The current owner has not been able to fully maintain or grow the business, leaving substantial opportunity for improvement.

With the right hands-on ownership, there is meaningful potential to increase sales through social media marketing, local advertising, delivery platforms, catering, extended hours, new product offerings, and revitalizing the operation with a fresh, engaged presence behind a well-known brand.

A lease extension is available to a qualified buyer, providing long-term stability in this excellent retail location. The seller is highly motivated and will entertain all reasonable offers to facilitate a timely transition.
