A Gong Cha Bubble Tea franchise location in the Calgary area is for sale. This business is easy to operate and has been in operation since November 2022, but the owners must sell because of a death in the family. The owners want to relocate for their family, so they are looking to sell this business quickly. Since they are in a hurry, they are asking $250,000. For reference, establishing a new Gong Cha Bubble Tea location starts at $350,000.
The business is a sub-franchise of the Western Canada Master Franchisee. The franchisee will provide training to the new owner. In addition, the Calgary area Gong Cha franchises are some of the top-performing in North America in revenue and profitability due to their commitment to high-quality and consistent drinks and customer service. Finally, the franchisee is willing to give back half of their fees in the first six months to the new owner so that they can invest more in sales and marketing initiatives.
Operations
The new owner can grow sales by investing in marketing, which has not been done since opening. The current location has two employees and is open from 11:30 AM to 9:00 PM daily. The ideal buyer would be willing to work in the business initially to get to know the customers, go out into the community and spread awareness of the location. Afterwards, the business is easy to manage, requiring the owner to oversee staffing and inventory.
