Profitable Gold Coast Café | 5 Days Trade per Week | Under Management | Overseas Owner | VISA 188A
This is an exciting opportunity to acquire a profitable and long-established café in one of the Gold Coast’s most sought-after lifestyle hubs. Perfectly positioned in a bustling, high-traffic area surrounded by thriving businesses, offices, and a strong local community, this café enjoys excellent visibility, consistent walk-in trade, and a loyal customer base built over more than a decade.
Currently operated entirely under management, the café is overseen by a skilled and reliable team who ensure smooth day-to-day operations. The current owner lives overseas, demonstrating that this business model is both robust and sustainable without requiring daily involvement. For investors seeking a hands-off, cash-flow positive business, this café is the ideal opportunity.
Why This Café Stands Out:
Prime Lifestyle Location
Situated in a vibrant Gold Coast precinct, this café benefits from a mix of residential density, professional offices, educational institutions, and steady local foot traffic. The area’s thriving atmosphere & strong community connection create a constant flow of regular patrons, while its accessibility and lifestyle appeal make it a popular meeting spot for locals and visitors alike.
Strong Financials & Secure Lease
Weekly Sales: Approx. $5,500 (including cash sales).
Payroll: Around $1,500 per week, plus $325 cash to kitchen staff.
COGS: Approx. $1,500 weekly, including consumables and packaging.
Lease: Secure until March 2026, with a further 3-year option to March 2029.
Rent: $3,337.88 per month including outgoings.
Trading Days: Only 5 days per week, offering lifestyle balance & further growth potential if extended.
This combination of consistent turnover, affordable costs, and a long lease provides excellent stability and peace of mind for a new owner.
Fully Managed Operation
Until May 2025, the café was run by a professional management company with an annual management fee of $15,000. Since then, it has been transitioned into direct oversight with an efficient staff structure, increasing its profitability. This proven under-management structure allows for flexibility and lifestyle balance, giving you the choice of continuing as a passive investor or stepping in as an owner-operator to boost returns further.
Future Growth Potential
While the café is already profitable, there are multiple untapped growth opportunities:
Extend trading hours beyond the current five-day schedule.
Expand menu offerings or introduce catering and functions.
Leverage delivery platforms to capture takeaway and online orders.
Run targeted local marketing to increase visibility and repeat visits.
Who Should Buy This Business?
This café is the perfect fit for:
Investors looking for a low-maintenance, under-management business with reliable cash flow.
Owner-operators ready to take the reins of a café with strong foundations and untapped upside.
