Rare opportunity to acquire a fast-growing Asian food production, distribution, wholesale & retail business positioned within one of Australia’s most in-demand and resilient food categories.
The business has rapidly established strong traction across both trade and consumer markets, supplying a growing network of restaurant customers while building a loyal retail following. Despite being in its early stage, it has already demonstrated proven demand, consistent sales performance and strong market interest.
Operating on a dual-income model, the business generates revenue through wholesale and distribution to restaurants and trade clients, as well as retail operations (6 days per week, 10:00am–4:30pm) supporting direct sales and brand exposure.
From inception to end of March 2026 (just 17 weeks of trading), the business has generated approximately $150,000 in revenue, averaging around $9,000 per week. Weekly net profit is approximately $2,000, equating to ~$104,000 annually, with an adjusted SDE of approximately $130,000.
Importantly, this performance has been achieved during the initial startup phase, with the business only just entering the market and still in its early growth cycle. The business is being offered for sale due to unforeseen personal circumstances, not performance.
Business has not been developed overnight, but through a highly focused and time-intensive process. The owners spent close to two years identifying and securing the right manufacturing partners. During this period, every individual dim sum product was carefully tested, adjusted, and refined to ensure it meets the taste preferences and expectations of the Australian market.
This was not simply about sourcing products — the owners were deeply involved in validating and perfecting each recipe, making sure every item achieves the right balance between quality, consistency, and local acceptance. Only after this extensive development process were they able to successfully import the first container into Australia.
In addition, the team brings over 50 years of business experience in Australia, particularly within the food and hospitality industry. This provides a strong understanding of the local market, customer preferences, and operational requirements.
As a result, a new owner will not just be acquiring a business, but will also benefit from proven experience, an established supply chain, and a model that has already been tested in the market — significantly reducing risk and enabling faster, more confident growth.
Significant groundwork has already been completed, including established social media and brand presence, a growing base of wholesale clients including reputable restaurants, fully developed training materials, videos and operational systems, and a structured franchise-ready model and framework allowing immediate scalability.
The business offers a flexible structure — continue operating both wholesale and retail, or transition to a wholesale/distribution-only model, enabling a work-from-home style operation with reduced overheads. A lease is available at approximately $1,000 per week for partial use of the premises, or the business can be easily relocated.
The business was set up with scalability in mind, with a clear pathway to expand into a national wholesale and distribution network while developing a franchise model across Australia and New Zealand, leveraging existing systems, operational simplicity and strong consumer demand.
This opportunity will suit owner-operators seeking a profitable hands-on business, investors looking for a scalable food brand with expansion upside, buyers seeking a flexible lifestyle business, and visa applicants (subject to independent advice).
A rare opportunity combining early-stage momentum, proven product development, national distribution potential, operational flexibility and franchise scalability.
