Business Description
Montana's #1 bakery brand with original local roots in Great Falls from the 1970's is selling its Helena, Montana franchise location with territory rights & privileges. This RARE OPPORTUNITY WON'T LAST! This turnkey location has been here in Helena, MT since 2006 at the same prime location with over 25,000 cars passing it everyday. Be your own boss, enjoy a flexible work schedule, hire who you want, and eat freshly baked breads, gourmet warm/cold breakfast & lunch sandwiches, teacakes, cookies, brownies, desserts and other great tasting Great Harvest products as often as you desire.

Not only are the Great Harvest Bread Company products healthier and delicious, but the margins are excellent and the work life balance is about as good as it gets. Work indoors in the cold winter Montana months baking fresh bread products in front of a warm oven while being your own boss and enjoying the summer months outdoors while you or your employees attend the farmers markets selling your freshly baked products.

Business is turnkey and with the right staff business can even be operated remotely, although it has been more of a community based business in the past. New owner does get access to licensing of trademarks, copyrights, recipes, logos, as well as all of the other additional benefits associated with a well known advertising franchise support system. Business sourcing is very stable and there are back up vendors for almost all aspects of the business, that's why this business has and will continue to stand the test of time.

Seller has contractual agreement for distribution with popular local supplier and more suppliers could easily be added. Seller has recently spent a lot of money and time updating the physical location, floors, paint, walls, fixtures and more and its interior is updated and beautiful. Seller has put their heart and sole into the business and is selling to assist a family member with health problems.

Market Outlook / Competition
The store location is ideal with over 25,000 cars passing a day and most customers are re-occurring and or walk in customers. The current owner thinks the location is capable of producing over $1,000,000 a year in revenue. The average Great Harvest does around $930,000 in revenue. Bread and cookie stories have historically done well in the Helena, Montana area. Most Helena, MT locals don't know that Great Harvest does more than just bread products and has a cafe that is open daily. Owner understands that more social media, more ads, catering options, marketing, whole-sale, gluten x offerings would all drive additional sales dollars and additional business.

Owner is currently having family member with health issues and spending more and more time assisting family.
Opportunities for Growth
GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES: Adding a drive through window or food truck to this business could take this business to the next level! Large EXCLUSIVE territory allows for additional location expansion (Townsend etc)(hub & spoke) which could easily double revenue. Untapped catering potential for weddings & parties through platforms like EZ Cater. More opportunities for revenue growth with Grub-hub, Uber eats & similar mobile services not currently being utilized to their full potential. Opportunities to expand more wholesale account opportunities with event halls & other venues. Another growth opportunity to extended farmers market participation from April-October covering the whole season. Helena population is not aware that Great Harvest makes sandwiches, desserts, cookies, cakes, & other sweet treats & making them aware by other ads sources could really explode the business! So many opportunities to grow this business! This is a rare opportunity & we are looking for the right buyer.
