Turnkey Outer Banks Favorite: Ice Cream, Sandwich & Convenience Shop
Business Description
Rare opportunity to own a beloved, multi-revenue stream shop in a prime Outer Banks location. Ned’s has been serving locals and vacationers for over 10 years and is a recognized stop for sandwiches, ice cream, and convenient grab-and-go essentials—truly something for everyone in the family.
This well-established seasonal business continues to trend upward, with sales increasing last year and strong momentum heading into peak months. The operation is turnkey with plentiful equipment and inventory already in place, plus a long-term lease secured at a highly visible, high-traffic site. Outdoor seating adds to the guest experience and supports strong summer volume.
The peak season is concentrated into roughly three high-performing months, allowing an owner to capture major summer profits while maintaining flexibility in the off-season. Previous staff have expressed interest in returning, helping ensure a smooth transition and reliable seasonal hiring. SBA financing is available for qualified buyers. Ideal for an owner-operator, hospitality group, or investor seeking a proven OBX concept with diversified product lines and dependable seasonal demand.
