About the Business

- 2
- Employees

- Facilities & Assets
- Operates from a 2,051 sq. ft. retail space in the Happy Valley Crossroads East shopping center, with prominent storefront signage and shared parking.
Included in the sale are all furniture, fixtures, and equipment (FF&E): full baking ovens, an ice cream machine for homemade ice cream, commercial refrigeration and freezers, fudge kettles, warmers, chocolate dipping equipment, refrigerated display cases, and the point-of-sale system. Branded packaging, décor, and smallwares are also included. Inventory on hand at the time of transfer will be provided. - Market Outlook / Competition
- Demand for premium chocolates, desserts, and ice cream is consistent year-round, with peaks during holidays. There are no competing ice cream shops or chocolate confectionery retailers nearby, giving the store a unique advantage. Other options are limited to grocery store confections and general dessert shops, none offering the same variety of hand-crafted chocolates, caramel apples, fudge, baked goods, and homemade ice cream under a recognized national brand.
- Opportunities for Growth
- Significant potential exists to expand catering, custom gift baskets, and event partnerships (corporate gifts, weddings, schools, and local fundraisers). Delivery channels such as DoorDash, Uber Eats, and Grubhub are already in place and can be further leveraged. Expanding marketing efforts, particularly around seasonal holidays, community events, and social media outreach, could meaningfully increase customer awareness and sales.
