This is a Unique and One-of-a-Kind Food Product Producer, Wholesale/Distributor with a Large Outlet. Staff Managed and Responsible for the Supply and Distribution of a Large and Diverse Clientele of Wholesale Business Clients (Across Different Industries). Including Direct to Consumer Supply – All Being Lovers of this Large, High-Quality Ingredient, Great Tasting and Famous Brand of Cakes, Gateaux’s, Slices, Pies & Pastry, and Party/Event Food Products (Chilled, Fresh and Frozen). Cashflow is King Here – Tens of Thousands of Dollars of Income are Generated Upfront Per Week! Millions of Dollars in Total Sales Posted to the Top Line Per Annum... Best for a Mainly Absent Owner/Investor or Existing Food Industry Supply Business. Even More Income for an Owner if Present Day-to-Day (Which this Owner Isn’t)!

• Well-established for many decades (only a few owners), this is one of those businesses that feels as though you’ve struck upon the “elusive and proverbial unicorn” of an investment. The main reason for this is the fact that it enjoys a very diversified income, income spread between its “roaring success” of a direct-to-consumer outlet, and its wholesale distribution client segment, generating higher volume and repeat ordering activity – like clockwork (which makes up a high percentage of annual sales).

• Plus, a high, nearly 80% (approx.) gross profit margin to boot!

• Now, that’s a great financial reward for any new owner setting out to use this strong base business and continue to build, even springboard upwards.

• Just 0.4% (approx.) YTD ‘24 of annual turnover has been expensed as advertising, having been the case for nearly the last decade, as advertising, sales, or marketing initiatives have not been the primary focus of this business, nor ever needed – all thanks to a product quality and presentation that speaks volumes for this business’s marketplace stature.

• The focus remains on what is most important to the intrinsic culture of this operation, and that is, choosing to be proud to request the prices that reflect the higher quality ingredients used. This diverse product range is all about differentiation, with ample value being tied up with the recipes and methods used in production, also being transferred.

• The primary reason for such a high repeat order rate from wholesale clients and consumers alike is due to the quality, which is strictly adhered to, producing a superior taste and presentation to the mass-produced – cookie-cutter products vying for market share and trying to compete against this well-known brand. This range can be forgiven for being likened to what “mother used to make”. So, it has become famous as a result, as it can be found within local businesses, clubs and food establishments throughout the Southeast. This is a heavily relied upon supply – distribution-based business, giving the wholesale clients that always required differentiation from their local competitors.

• Made in-house by the highly trained managers and team in place. This is a staff-managed operation and none of the production is done by this owner who concentrates on keeping in touch with staff and enjoying a relaxing life. 

• This owner remains mainly absent, choosing to meet the managers and staff on site, as a sign of taking an interest, when and if required reviewing operational reports, speaking with section heads, reviewing sales, suggesting new product lines, etc

• Not only that, but this owner has little to worry about when it comes to the inflow of money, or “cashflow” in general, all thanks to investing in this type of diverse income-based business. A very good percentage of weekly sales are deposited into the bank account the same or the next day (credit card, direct deposit and eftpos etc).

• Even the online sales and click-and-collect, option to order via an app or website could be instigated and promoted actively, being for the direct benefit of this business and its large band of loyal and diverse wholesale clients. It being able to encourage even more sales, although, this business can already confidently lay claim to having one of the highest return and repeat order rates of any business operating within the SE QLD corner.

• This is a very unique business model, as it works “smarter rather than harder”, across so many of its operational areas. This business has a high rating from its LGA Health Department and has HACCP Certification for a number of high-volume products. This being a major area of immediate growth and profit potential. This business has many pipelines and target markets, which could bolster its already high-profit margins, and net income returns. This owner chooses to invest minimal hours per week, not required to enact day to day activities relating to this business. The day to day is operated under the direction of section managers and the trained team on staff.

• Not only would this be one of the very best “bolt on” opportunities that any existing food product wholesaler/distributor, producer, or multi-outlet-based operation could hope for, being this way for nearly the last decade. This staff managed investment has been made available for transfer for the very first time by this owner, in a very long time, being due to retirement and relocation out of the local SE QLD region.

• So, a great cashflow, a diversity of wholesale business clients and the bonus of full margin consumer income, plus a high overall gross profit margin and net income which highlights why not to work full-time for an employee, instead work less and let others work in your stead. With business ownership like this one, this could open the doors to a new chapter in one’s life, leading to an enjoyable lifestyle of supplying pleasure-based foods to the greater community.

• So, here, you can do what you want with your time and still bank the big profits! Isn’t that what all good business investments are all about?

• With millions of dollars of sales up for grabs, and subsequently, a quality product range, existing team, and income from a large existing and die-hard loyal clients, that offer a multi-million-dollar re-ordering momentum, all is well and truly under way and a sound market has since been carved out for this brand. Even caterers and event companies enjoy making this reliable supplier one of their preferred providers for their clientele.

• So much has been achieved over decades of operating, to date. Including the transfer of great paying wholesale business clients and a great market share that is ready and waiting for a new owner to cultivate even further. All this business requires is a new and enthused owner at the helm.

• The “profit pockets” are plentiful and are awaiting filling even more, most lying dormant and ready to be actioned (oh so many ideas for marketing and promoting ready to be transferred by this owner). Able to rest to date on its already built reputation for quality, and its large and diverse product range speaks for itself – literally (as it is all in the tasting!)

• Wholesale distribution clients are spread throughout Greater Brisbane, and potential exists for expanding Gold Coast customers, West to Ipswich/Toowoomba and the Sunshine Coast regions. This means that no matter how much time or work is invested, the scene has already been set to make money on your behalf…

• This owner knows that coasting along may not be the best strategy for this business but enjoying a high 85-95% (approx.) repeat order rate from existing business clients and consumers has suited this owner just fine. Making for a comfortable life both financially and operationally!

Genuine retirement, relocation and exit by this owner, is reflected in the value asked for this business. There is a motivation for the movement of this business, so that it can become overseen by a new owner/investor or company. And all this profit, equipment and a whole lot of substantial value goodwill, having taken many decades to “cement”, for the benefit of the next recipient, is all being transferred now for just $975K + SAV ($80K-100K approx.) Open to all genuine offers
